■About the fermented Kombucha drink "JAPANESE CRAFT KOMBUCHA KYUSHU BLOOM"
Kombucha is a fermented tea beverage that first gained popularity with American celebrities and is now highly sought after as a health drink overseas. Unlike traditional fruit-flavored drinks, this product uses only carefully selected tea leaves from Kyushu. Our unique multi-stage fermentation process achieves a fine wine-like texture and a mellow flavor reminiscent of white peach. This exceptional product fully showcases the charm of Japanese craftsmanship and tea leaves. Enjoy by mixing with chilled carbonated water.

■ Passing on Japan's tea culture to the future - "TSUBOICHI TEA PLACE" brand
The culture of brewing and enjoying tea in a teapot is fading in modern times. Cheap bottled tea has become mainstream, and the demand for first-grade tea, which is the main source of income for tea farmers, is steadily declining. Facing the shortage of producers and the threat of cultural survival, Tsuboichi Tea Honpo's brand "TSUBOICHI TEA PLACE" was born. It aims to spread the true value and charm of tea to the world.
This brand was born with the aim of spreading the word about Japanese tea culture to the world, making it sustainable, and passing it on to the future. We offer a new way to enjoy tea for special occasions.
