Akebono Tea's classic tea collection consists of traditional Sencha, Hojicha and Genmaicha as well as herbal blends which mix in various kinds of herbs in a collection of teas in eight flavours.
Akebono is based in Japan and uses handpicked tea leaves harvested from the base of Mt Fuji with no pesticides of chemical fertilisers used on the crops.
The company began blending tea in Tokyo with a goal is to create a unique Japanese tea by mixing traditional tea and herbs to reflect the traditional and modern aspects of the city of Tokyo.
