🍵✨ TV Spotlight on Nishio’s Delicious Match

🍵✨ TV Spotlight on Nishio’s Delicious Matcha! ✨🍵 Matcha is currently a very trendy and popular flavor. In addition to the drink itself, you can find almost anything matcha flavored these days - cookies, cakes, parfaits, even skincare products! But did you know that Nishio, a small town south of Nagoya, is one of the top producers of matcha in Japan? It’s actually the only place in Japan that specializes in growing the type of tea specifically for matcha! Our CEO, Elly, recently went to Nishio as a part of the NHK Journeys in Japan series and filmed a special episode about Nishio’s special matcha culture. These episodes are in English and Japanese with English subtitles. You can check out other episodes of NHK Journeys in Japan here: https://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/shows/journeys/The program featuring Elly’s visit to Nishio will air on NKH on these dates: Tuesday July 8th on three time slots: ❶9:30-9:58 2:14:30-14:58 3:19:30-19:58 Wednesday July 9th on two time slots: ❶0:30～0:58 2.6:30～6:58If you don't have access to NHK, don't worry. We'll post again when it's available on the NHK website! In the meantime, check out our updated article about Nishio. We’ve added information about @akahoriseitya Akahori Teahouse, one of the places Elly visits during the program, to the article so you can check it out for yourself.
