The Story of Kochouan, Passed Down Through Generations in AzuminoFounded in Keicho era(1604) as a traditional inn, Azumino Tea Kochouan transitioned into a tea wholesaler in Meji era(1874).
Established by Jiro Mihara, the shop refined and sold raw tea leaves.
Typically, businesses purchase ready-made products to sell directly to their customers.
At Kochoan, however, we take a different approach.
Instead of relying on pre-processed goods, we carefully select raw tea leaves, known as aracha, and process them in-house.
This meticulous method not only ensures superior quality but also enables us to craft a product that is distinctively our own.
Today, in Azumino City, Nagano, the shop not only crafts and sells confections that pair perfectly with tea but also operates a traditional Japanese tea café.
