How Japanese Green Tea is Made

If you're like me and had no clue that most of the world's tea, including Japanese green tea, comes from the same plant, then come along for a tea learning journey!

Special thanks to d:matcha for giving me a behind-the-scenes look at how it all happens in the lovely town of Wazuka. You can learn more about tea on their website https://www.dmatcha.com/. By the way, this is not a sponsored video, but I highly recommend visiting if you're in the Kyoto area.
