Kawahara Chagyo

川原茶業

Kawahara Chagyo (川原茶業) is a tea producer and wholesaler based in Ureshino City, Saga Prefecture, founded in 1914. It uses the brand name 'Nabeshimahan' (鍋島藩), which it applies to Ureshino tea made from leaf grown in the part of Saga that the Nabeshima domain once governed, and the company sells Ureshino tea by mail order within Japan. It describes Ureshino tea as tamaryokucha (玉緑茶), grown in a basin with deep mist and fertile land, with strong umami and little astringency. It says its processing factory is certified as an organic food factory and that it keeps tea in its own -25°C freezers. The company also lists 'Nabeshima Domain Matcha' (鍋島藩の抹茶).
