Murakami City
Even in Murakami City known as 'The northernmost tea place in Japan', Fujimien is a long-established store, founded in 1868. They say that the original 'Yukiguni tea' as well as the high-quality green tea is popular mainly among women. The 'Saryo (Tea room) Kane-ei' was recently opened in the fall of 2019. The cafe shop, named after the first wife, is a space renovated from a building that used to sort tea leaves. First, you can choose whether the staff makes the tea in front of you or you make it by yourself while being taught. After that, you can appreciate tea with Murakami tea gelato and seasonal Japanese sweets (from 800 yen including tax plus tea leaf fee). 'Nowadays, there are many families without a teapot, so I want you to enjoy a relaxing time to make tea.'' said the owner, Mr. Iijima.
