Takayama Sansho
Takayama Sansho is a native sansho pepper rooted in the deep mountains of Okuhida Onsengo for over 80 years. Winters fall below -10°C and summers exceed 30°C. Tempered by this harsh climate, our sansho has an aroma that naturally repels insects, along with remarkable vitality. That is why we grow it without pesticides.
My 77-year-old father has cultivated it, believing in the power of nature and the mountains. Each summer we handpick the berries one by one with the villagers, choosing to preserve this land's sansho and way of life rather than prioritizing efficiency.
Our caffeine-free sansho tea, made from the inner layer of the berry, has a gentle aroma and a clean finish. Its fragrance and tingle carry the great essence of Okuhida and our family's commitment to delivering something truly special.
