Nodoka brings the traditional Japanese green tea into a modern perspective and the contemporary wellness spotlight. We help to connect traditional tea farmers with the rest of the world—taking them into the new, connected economy, while helping to preserve their craft.
Suil Hong was born and raised in Tokyo Japan. He worked to promote Japanese cultural products to an international audience and manage Japanese culture events in New York. It was on a trip home, traveling through his country’s beautiful rural landscapes, where he met traditional Japanese tea makers and a new passion was born.
He was aware of the challenges—both natural and economic—facing Japanese organic tea farmers. Back in America, Suil started a new company, Nodoka, with the mission to connect traditional tea farmers with the rest of the world—taking them into the new, connected economy, while helping to preserve their craft.
There is so much more in these pages that I hope you’ll discover about our mission, our approach, and our recipes. But for now, let me say— I’m glad you’re here. Thanks for joining us on this journey.
澄んだ空気と清らかな水、 よりすぐりの環境で生まれた高品質な茶葉
静岡県の標高600mの山間部に位置する自然環境に恵まれた茶畑。
短い日照時間、朝夕は霧が立ち込め寒暖の差が大きいなど、美味しいお茶づくり、無農薬有機栽培の条件が揃っています。緻密な土壌づくりやこだわりの栽培方法によって一段上の茶葉ができあがりました。決して強く主張しすぎない、爽やかで優しい味。まるで体の細胞が喜んでいるような感覚を覚えます。
NODOKAのお茶はJAS（日本）、USDA（アメリカ）有機認証を共に取得しています。有機認証を取得している国産茶葉はとても稀少で、全体の約3％にとどまっているといわれています。 オーガニック認証機関では原材料や製造工程などを厳しく審査し、製品の品質や安全性を保証しています。
