How Japanese GREEN TEA is Made | Farm to Factory ★ ONLY in JAPAN

- The process to make Japanese Green Tea known as Sencha starts at the farm and we'll follow the harvest to the factory in Shizuoka. The time it's steam has extraordinary control of the color, aroma and taste - this factory is steaming the tea leaves for 120 seconds which will make "Fukamushi Sencha" a deep colored robust flavored green tea.

I lived in Shizuoka for 2 years, thank you for telling the world about Shizuoka's green tea. I remember I cycled through a massive green tea farm on the northern part of Shizuoka city. Now I kinda miss living there, haha.
I hope this channel can grow more and regain its former glory
Create THE BEST content and stories I can and it will grow :) glory is nothing I care about - just tell a great, original story that inspires ٩(^‿^)۶
@@onlyinjapan I dont think i realize the channel shrunk, although i did think i recall this channel originally being several people with John as only 1 of the hosts / members... i kind of forgot about the channel for a little while and recenty rediscovered. Love what i used to see back then, and I have loved all this more recent stuff too. Keep telling the story of Japanese culture. As an American who hasnt been able to leave north america, I find this channel very rewarding to watch. Thanks man.
Your videos are always informative and entertaining, and this video is no exception. I was truly fascinated how the Japanese use other ingredients to improve the taste of older green tea. P.S. the drone shots were simply stunning.
Agreed!
I've recently discovered that Japanese Green Tea is so good with sweets, or as an alternative to coffee with breakfast. It cleanses your palate with every sip, making you appreciate also the flavors of your food. I enjoyed this episode! Will check out the rest of the series!
It's amazing how much tea leaves they can produce with a big farm like that. Whenever I watch videos like this I'm always amazed at the hardwork and care they put into the entire thing (from growing to harvesting, etc.) so while I think the end product is pretty expensive, I can see exactly why.
SENCHA!!! My day to day choice of beverage. I love to try sencha from different growers and different grades. Now to see the process it goes through makes it even more special. Sadly, TH-cam doesn’t offer ‘Smell-O-Vision’ yet. The production quality of your videos, combined with the information content, makes me happy to watch them. Stunning aerials.
I would love to see a supplement to this series focused on the production of the highest grades of teas…gyokuro.
The next episode on Matcha was film with tea grown under black tarps. You can imagine what kind that way 😂 should be a great follow up. I’ll release it at the end of January when Matcha flavored confections start coming out for spring 😋 I was going to make this a long episode on both, but it made more sense to separate them and add in more confections in the matcha one.
@@onlyinjapan matcha and matcha confections? I’m up for that. I eagerly await anything from you. Only wish there was a chance I could get to Japan to experience it all in person. Instead I just live vicariously through those who can.
This is exactly the type of John's content we all love.
LOVED THIS!! I love Japanese green tea and always try to enjoy a cup as often as possible. Hojicha being my favorite. Never thought about the precise details on how tea is cultivated and roasted. Thank you for sharing this video John!
The "Tea Ceremony" and history of Japanese etiquette a 700 year tradition of cultural trade customs. Green tea has been involved with many nutritional investigations of science with human metabolism. This video demonstrates the industrial practice that quality experts can relate to process design across the industry. A very good job as touring assessment of the manufacturing plan and quality manufacturing. Good job John Daub!
Sugoi! I didn't realize that the green tea processing was so complicated and that the tea taste depended so much on harvest date. This video is very informative! Excellent work!!!
When I make a cup of tea, I won't look at it the same way after seeing the process it goes through. I enjoy all the different kinds of green tea but like my genmaicha 😋🍵 Enjoyed this John 👍
Knowing now I’m allowed to enter Japan just makes me so happy
Hi John! I used to live in Shizuoka for more than 10 years. My neighbor runs a green tea company. I didn't know how fukamushi sencha is produced, so it was nice to learn the process by watching your video.
There is a pretty little village called Ikegawa in Shikoku, which produces green tea. Also there is a very clear river in the area and you can enjoy kayaking. I enjoyed a cup of tea and a tea dessert at a nice cafe in front of the river and tea field. You must go there.
You covered the tea processing comprehensively from this video I now know something about green tea!
I always get so excited whenever i see a new John Daub episode.
And every time it makes me wanna travel to Japan even more! :D
I absolutely love the stringent discipline that so many Japanese things are produced with , we could sure use a little or a lot of that in the rest of the world! 🙏😎
I usually drink green tea in the morning. I like the process of tasting the different Japanese teas.
The number of people and the amount of time it can take to make something as "simple" as tea is astounding. Thanks for another great video.
I didn't know how to make green tea even japanese. Thank you for introducing it.
Mmm.. you can almost smell the wonderful aroma of that two-stroke exhaust.
As a gardener, this may be my favorite ONLY in JAPAN series yet! Utterly fascinating =)
Quick heads up that your intro chapter has a small typo ("strat").
Thank you! I had a couple of small errors I’m with spelling - my previewers missed them too 😂 I was curious too which is why I made this one 🍵
This is part 2 of a planned 3 part series on Green Tea & Matcha 🍵 update: the next episode will come out later in 2023 😋🎉 PART 1: th-cam.com/video/pBmTNkXOGjA/w-d-xo.html
0:32 Typo in the title card. "Facory"
Compliment: This was interesting enough to watch all the way through, and I don't even LIKE tea!
@@dolan-duk I’m aware and there’s nothing I can do 🤷🏻♂️ gosh, 150 people previewed it before release - and my eyes 1000 times. Must have been an accidental backspace before the final render. That’s life - mistakes makes it special and one-of-a-kind 😂
Wow, part 3 is FAST considering part 1 was over a year ago. Sitting through the covid lockdowns must have frustrated you trying to get this out. Glad to see you out again!
@@onlyinjapan No worries! Maybe once all the parts are done you can do a "director's cut" version of all of the parts combined (with whatever edits needed). I'm sure many of us will watch it again! I look forward to all your edited videos (lovely host with great videography!) since the livestreams aren't really my cup of tea most of the time.
7:11 That vibrant green color is so gorgeous. The senchas I've bought and tried so far has mostly either been yellowish green or light green. I have not found a brand that looks as green as that, I need to find that brand. Bet that processing factory smells heavenly.
Adding green tea to my shopping list for Japan.
That farm monorail looks like it could be fun and relaxing 😀😌
I was never a green tea/matcha guy, but I do find stuff like this fascinating
While your Japan GO! channel has it's charms and I like the livestreams I still prefer this due to it's polish and informative nature. I still wouldn't trade one for the other though. Thanks for your effort Mr. Daub.
We think of green tea as being just dried leaves but there’s so much more to the process. Thanks for this video. And bonus, I learned that a 1 yen coin is 1g.
Me too! I actually weighed one ¥1 coins then 3 ¥1 coins and it added up! So interesting 🍵 thanks Raymond!
@@onlyinjapan But did the Bank of Japan do that on purpose?
I really love green and matcha teas, thanks so much for this documentary video.
I get unreasonably happy when I get a notification that you posted a new episode. UNREASONABLY.
6:30. He inserted his hand into the machine.Amazing!
I’m a tea drinker and it clears the mind
Its amazing to see how much work goes into Green Tea, I much appreciate it more! Thanks John! Great work, drone shots look awesome
Wonderful mini-documentary! Adorable mini-monorail at 2:19 Quick answer to why roasted tea & genmaicha were created at 10:37
It's always amazing how much work and care goes into making green tea.
I was on the Azores last month and Visited two green tea plants (as far as they claimed the only ones remaining in Europe) and they showed a "similar" but much simpler process also they kinda sorted out different sizes of leaves as they all had different aromas.
So they had the young small leaves the middle and the old big leaves making 3 different kind of green tea as well as a 4th one with them mixed all together.
I love to watch these videos in the morning with a big cup of coffee!
Working on a bunch of them to keep you sipping on more morning 😃☕️
It is so cool to see on how meticulous they are. This just proves their passion and their excellency. We are a coffee and tea drinker but not so sure if we ever tried their teas. The coffee that we drink usually comes from South America and Ethiopia. And teas are usually from Sri Lanka. We would love to try it. Hoping soon and also hoping to visit Japan!👌🏻
Good to see you back John.
The way the manager sticks his hand into the machines is crazy
Learned so much. From now on, I have a whole new level of appreciation when I enjoy Sencha! Looking forward to next episode
Its a great day when John drops a video!
I like these long form video essays .
That was such a superb video John. And the "tea-man" looked exactly as I expected him to look, except I might expected him to wear a strawhat instead of a baseball cap, but I guess he's just a very fashionable "tea-man".
Great work on the video - top shelf quality. ^^
Best regards,
Thomas
John you are honestly the most hardworking youtuber I know of ; your production quality really shines through and your personality is perfect - i hope you can get some rest over the christmas period - Have a lovely christmas mate
Another quality video from one and only John Daub🎉
We are farmers in Scotland and love farm-to-table videos!!
Nice as always, it have been a while since i have watched your videos, i will catch up !!!
Funny I just checked to see, and the other Only In Japan channel put out a green tea video 2 weeks ago and it only has 7k views. This video has been out 3 hours and already has 2.5k views. From videography/editing to storytelling to informational content to personality you're absolutely killing them haha.
Great video John
Wow, entertaining content! 3:16 says Soju Keading
Just was in matcha museum (more like how it's made than history) in Nishio, nearby. Can't wait to the next episode !
I love green tea! I drink it every day!
Matcha Heaven💙😇
amazing video as always...thanks John..
Looking forward for your upcoming matcha episode 👍👍👍
It should come out in January. I have to make one more trip to Shizuoka or a restaurant to film the confection making scene. The factory and farm scenes are gorgeous and it's so interesting how they are same in many ways and also so different!
Good luck on your projects john, i'll always be waiting for your new episodes
Hey John. Thank you man I really liked this video. Also I love drinking Japanese green tea 👍🙂
I love green tea John thumb up
Great video and not new from me actually , i've been on tea plantation on Sri Lanka so , its still great to see how they do that in Japan😎Thank you John🙂👍!!!
Really liked the episode! Always learning. I have good memories of Shizuoka, there a woman while working left her post just to show me directions. My home island produces green tea too. Can't wait for the next episode! Thanks John!
yaay I have been looking forward to this. Thank you~ 😊
Thanks for another excellent video, never realized the process of making drinkable high quality green tea is this complicated! We really take for granted as end user on the final product we comsumed. Definitely would love an episode on hojicha!
Amazing, thank you for offering us a window into the process, farm to cup!
Lovely video. Thanks for sharing 🎄 ❄️ ☃️
Yummy green tea
John, I can never help but feel like you saw an episode of "how its made" and modeled your entire career around it, from what and how you cover things to the intonation and delivery of your voiceovers, its all so.... close! Lol at any rate your channel is amazing and has brought me alot of enjoyment over the past few years since Ive started watching.
Woah! I’m so excited to watch this 🍵
Can't wait for the last part of this fantastic serie 💚💚💚 yummy matcha 🤤
These videos are so therapeutic
Amazing, thanks for sharing John!
Guess what. I'm drinking a good cup of Kukicha to celebrate your second Green Tea Video(:
Lovely! Very informative & eye opening. I enjoyed every second of your video.
Love your videos! Long time fan!
I love it, John! I can't wait for the rest of the series!
💖 -Ava
Another great video. Can't wait for part 2.
It's technically going to be Part 3 :) I'll connect them all in a playlist and in the last video on Matcha for sure -- it may not be the last!
I'll happily move there and drive the green tea monorail! 😄
Another quality production from John. Looking forward to the next part of this series!
another great video 🌿🌿🌿👍
Thanks for showing us the process, now I know how my fav sencha get it's vivid green colour. In fact I am sipping a mug right now while watching this video. Cheers 🍵
@@babazeropointer Do agree the video release on his main channel is few and far between. That is the disadvantage of a one man show where he do everything from planning and negotiating access permission to editing and releasing video notifications across various social medias all by himself. All that work on top of his duties as a husband and father plus managing the postcard and parcels of his patreon supporters. I like his main channel videos as the quality is good showing a lot of details other TH-camrs left out in their rush to churn out videos. As for recycled old topic, we know the green tea topic spans across multiple episodes since John brought us all with him to the various shooting locations via his OIJ Go streaming channel and we look forward to the next tea video on matcha. Cheers 🍻
What a beautiful and colorful green vlog. Love Green Tea and it's interesting to see all of the process, thank you!
Awesome video! Thanks John
😊 👍 Thank you very much John for another top 🔝 quality video. I ♥ Green Tea 🍵. ✌️ 💖 🙏 Levent 🦁

Love it when you make these videos John-san, keep up the amazing work!
