Toyohachi® Red: The Reserve Quality for True Tea Connoisseurs

Experience the profound depth and luxurious richness of our masterfully crafted green tea. The distinguished red packaging is our signature mark of reserve-grade, highest-quality tea leaves.

This exquisite reserve blend showcases the pinnacle of Japanese tea regions: the globally prized Yame (renowned for its deep, shade-grown umami and premium matcha heritage) and Chiran (celebrated for its robust, full-bodied richness).

For the ultimate tasting experience, brew this tea gently at a lower temperature. This unlocks an astonishing concentration of rich, savory sweetness (umami) and a full-bodied texture so velvety and comforting, it is reminiscent of a fine, delicate broth.

Whether you are hosting honored guests or indulging in a well-deserved moment of self-care, Toyohachi® Red creates an extraordinary, soothing ritual.

The Legacy of Toyohachi® & Takakuraen

Founded in 1926, Takakuraen celebrates a century of perfecting the art of Japanese tea. Our signature brand, Toyohachi®, was born in 1989 as the culmination of this lifelong dedication.

Using discerning eyes and traditional techniques passed down through generations, our tea masters meticulously select and blend the finest leaves from Kyushu to maximize their unique characteristics. We never compromise on aroma, umami, or the lingering finish.

This is not just tea; it is the proud signature of Takakuraen—crafted to bring the authentic, healthy essence of Japan directly to your cup.
