منطقة أصاحي ميا في محافظة شيقا
أصاحي ميا تقع على الحدود بين محافظة كيوتو ومحافظة شيقا. وهي تُعتبر واحدة من أقدم مناطق إنتاج الشاي في اليابان وتُعد واحدة من خمسة أنواع شاي مشهورة في اليابان. ترتفع المنطقة حوالي 400 متر، وتتميز بفروق حرارية كبيرة بين الليل والنهار وطقس مليء بالضباب، مما يجعلها منطقة مناسبة لزراعة الشاي.
ننصح بتخزين الشاي الياباني في مكان بارد ومظلم. يرجى تجنب الرطوبة والضوء القوي والأماكن ذات الروائح القوية.
