The family has cultivated tea in Kumamoto Prefecture for 400 years under the name Daiichi Ky\u014dd\u014d Mizoguchi. The current director of the company is Mizoguchi Yoshiki, who is based in Hiroshima. Yoshiki&rsquo;s cousin, Teruaki, continues the family tradition of producing tea in Kumamoto. <\/p>\n<p>During work on Kumamoto Castle in the year 1600, the Mizoguchi family received spare building materials from the castle construction work to build their own estate. In exchange for the good will of the feudal lord, the family was asked to maintain its home in the area as a sign of solidarity. Following this event, the Mizoguchi family has maintained its estate in Kumamoto over the past four centuries.\t  <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ujienseicha.co.jp\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/48404579_330332617694737_112517122269118464_n.jpg\" width=\"1000\" height=\"690\" alt=\"\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"w1000 w900\">\n<div class=\"txp02001\">\n<p>Though the Mizoguchi family maintains strong historical roots in Kumamoto, their business name &lsquo;Ujien Seicha&rsquo; takes the name &lsquo;Ujien&rsquo; after the famous tea-growing region in Kyoto. The reason for this lies in the Mizoguchi&rsquo;s respect for Japanese tea culture. <\/p>\n<p>For generations, the Mizoguchi family have revered the founder of Japanese tea, Zen monk Eisai. Eisai wrote the first Japanese treatise on tea, called the &lsquo;Treatise on Drinking Tea for Health&rsquo; (Kissa Yojoki). In this work, Eisai notes that he started propagating tea from Kyoto. This led to the development of the Japanese tea ceremony (chanoyu) which was very popular among the warrior class. Warlord Toyotomi Hideyoshi developed seven tea plantations in Uji from Eisai&rsquo;s original tea bushes, upholding Eisai&rsquo;s legacy. Tea bushes from these plantations were distributed throughout Japan and the Mizoguchi family were one of the recipients of seeds and tea bushes from these original plantations in Uji. The family heritage is built around the preservation and cultivation of this distinguished tea. To honour this heritage and to inspire all future generations, they name their tea after its source, the original tea plantations of Uji, or &lsquo;Ujien&rsquo;.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"height: 8em;\"><\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"gzmoji001\" style=\"text-align: center; padding: 2em 0;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ujienseicha.co.jp\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/lop009.png\"><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center; padding-bottom: 1em;\">\n<div class=\"bnkt akamaru001\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"bnkt skmskm001\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"bnkt midashi002 yuu_m\">Innoshima &lsquo;Toch\u016b&rsquo; Tea<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\t<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"p2gz001 widmax\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ujienseicha.co.jp\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/ooonk002.png\" width=\"1603\" height=\"601\" alt=\"\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"w1000 w900\">\n\t\t<!--\n\n<div class=\"mds02 yuu_m\">\u675c\u4ef2\u8336\u3078\u306e\u60f3\u3044<\/div>\n\n--><\/p>\n<div class=\"txp02001\">\n<p>Toch\u016b is a herbal tea that comes from the toch\u016b plant, an ancient plant unrelated to camellia sinensis (the tea plant). Toch\u016b has been regarded one of the &lsquo;big five&rsquo; Chinese medicines since ancient times. In Japan, toch\u016b is enjoyed as a caffeine-free, healthful tea. Toch\u016b tea can be enjoyed by people of all ages, from infants to the elderly.<\/p>\n<p>We want people to fall in love with Innoshima toch\u016b tea after one sip. We want the sweet, refreshing taste of toch\u016b to be savoured as a delicious tonic. As we care for taste, we also care for people&rsquo;s health. We use no agrochemicals in the production of our organic toch\u016b tea. Caffeine is also a concern for many people and toch\u016b is naturally caffeine-free.<\/p>\n<p>Toch\u016b has a long history with Hiroshima. It is said that the great military leader Taira Kiyomori (1118\u20131181) first imported toch\u016b from China to the islands of Hiroshima Prefecture, where it is still used as a medicine today. The toch\u016b plant has been used as a herbal medicine in Asia for over 2000 years. In growing toch\u016b on Innoshima island off of Hiroshima, we have embarked on a journey of taking one of the &lsquo;big five&rsquo; Chinese herbal medicines and cultivating it as a delicious, healthy beverage for people everywhere. <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ujienseicha.co.jp\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/73220318_481538992438801_9001767147608735744_n.jpg\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1200\" alt=\"\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"w1000 w900\">\n<div class=\"txp02001\">\n<p>Cultivation of toch\u016b started in 1987 on the island of Innoshima, Hiroshima Prefecture.

In fact, the average age of the 30 members of the Producer&rsquo;s Association is over 70. Toch\u016b is regarded as an elixir for perennial youth and longevity.

The school originated four centuries ago, in the warrior class of feudal Japan. The Ueda S\u014dko school combines the soul of Hiroshima with the spiritual practice of the tea ceremony.<\/p>\n<p>Although tea ceremony culture is concentrated in Kyoto, in Hiroshima there exists a unique culture of the heart that aims to unite people through peace. This is reflected in how warrior tea practice has transformed the fierce loyalty to one&rsquo;s clan and feudal lord to a staunch belief in the innate beauty of all living beings. In the Ueda school is a strong, genuine wish for peace, distinct from the tea spirit one experiences in Kyoto.<\/p>\n<p>As a tea business from Hiroshima, we wish for the tea spirit of the Ueda S\u014dko Tradition to touch the hearts of people all around the world.

We believe that Japanese tea has a key role in furthering peace in the world. Our dream is to realize peace in the world, by playing our role through tea. <\/p>\n<p>Tea has been used from ancient times to promote friendship between people. To realize the dream of world peace, people need to come together to form friendships at most, and achieve a wide, empathetic understanding at least. Tea is ideal for this process and it is here that Ujien Seicha can make a huge contribution to peace. Since establishing our first foreign partnership in Australia in 2011, we now enjoy dynamic and mutually stimulating business partnerships in the U.S.A., China, Germany, Canada, France, England, Singapore, Norway and the Czech Republic. Through tea, through these business partnerships, we are working towards global peace. <\/p>\n<p>With reverence in our chests and love in our hearts, at Ujien Seicha we are open to working with and offering tea to all people, no matter their background. If you are interested in our vision, or would just like some delicious tea, please contact me directly via the information below. <\/p>\n<p>Sincerely, <\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Mizoguchi Yoshiki <\/p>\n<div style=\"line-height: 1.6em;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/NIPPONCHAYOSIKI\/\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook\u226b<\/a><br \/>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/nipponcha.yosiki\/\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram\u226b<\/a><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Mizoguchi Yoshiki , Director, Ujien Seicha <br \/>\n            Tel: 0848-23-2886 <br \/>\n            Fax: 0848-23-4119 <\/p>\n<p>Email: <a href=\"mailto:info@secondgrid.com\">info@secondgrid.com<\/a><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>  \t<!--\n\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ujienseicha.co.jp\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/kp0303.jpg\" width=\"1000\" height=\"690\" alt=\"\"\/><\/div>\n\n--><\/p>\n<p>\t<!--\n\n<div class=\"w1000 w900\">\n\t\t\n\n<div class=\"txp02001\">\u5e83\u5cf6\u306e\u65e5\u672c\u306e\u548c\u5fc3\u3092\u3001\u5c3e\u9053\u306f\u5e83\u5cf6\u3001\u305d\u3053\u306b\u751f\u307e\u308c\u80b2\u3066\u3089\u308c\u305f\u5c0f\u793e \u81ea\u5206\u3082\u5fae\u529b\u3067\u306f\u3042\u308a\u307e\u3059\u304c\u4e00\u4eba\u3067\u3082\u591a\u304f\u306e\u4eba\u306b\u89e6\u308c\u3066\u8cb0\u3044\u305f\u3044\u3002\u4e00\u65b9\u7684\u306a\u60f3\u3044\u304b\u3089\u59cb\u307e\u308a\u4eca\u3001\u4e0a\u7530\u6d41\u548c\u98a8\u5802\u5fa1\u5bb6\u5143\u306e\u60f3\u3044\u3092\u4e16\u754c\u3078\uff01\u5e73\u548c\u3078\u306e\u529b\u5f37\u3044\u5fc3\u306b\u611f\u8b1d\u3057\u5171\u306b\u4f1d\u3048\u7d9a\u3051\u307e\u3059\u3002<\/div>\n\n\n\t<\/div>\n\n--><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>History The Mizoguchi family are the he founders and owners of Ujien Seicha.
