Tea Festival at Gurinpia Makinohara 2009

Kisakuen organized its annual tea festival at Makinohara tea plantations on the 1st day of March. The Premises were filled with His Excellency, The Ambassador of Sweden and his wife along with other VIPs. We all experienced hand plucking tea leaves to manufacturing of “ShinCha”, First flush. The ambassador said in his speech that he was taken back to his childhood memories of blue berry picking and also hopes to build a bridge of friendship between the two countries. We heartily thank our guests for their precious time and cooperation.
