Iro "Toridori": The Colorful World of Japanese Tea

いろ、とりどり。
カラフルな日本茶の世界

Welcome to the colorful world of Japanese tea!

"Iro-toridori (色とりどり)" is a Japanese word meaning "colorful". Here we created a color palette of our Japanese tea collection, connecting each tea with a Japanese traditional color. For example, "midori (緑)" is the color of green in Japanese, which is the color of green tea.

Color is another dimension of Japanese tea.

In persuit of the real terroir: Toridori's Tea Collection

ほんとうのテロワールを求めて

The word "terroir" means the taste of that land. And this is strongly connected to the land where the tea plants grow and the people who make the tea. The unique story of each cup of tea is a beautiful collaboration of human hand and nature power, and this is very important to us.

For this perspective, agricultural inputs — especially fertilizers and agrochemicals (herbicides and alike) — have a very strong influence on the cup of tea. Therefore, we make sure that all of our teas come from the farm without any agrochemicals and with minimal fertilization, without any use of chemical fertilizers.

By doing so, our teas strongly reflect the taste of that land — the terroir.
