Haruno tea, which won the Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Award at the 2024 National Tea Competition, is made possible by the river mist that arises from the Keta River acting like a natural cheesecloth, resulting in high-quality tea leaves that blend umami with just the right amount of astringency.

In addition, the company’s attention to detail is evident in the passionate research it undertakes, as well as the emphasis it places on hand-picking and hand-processing, which sees it enter the tea at competitions almost every year.
