- Category:Nature
Women dressed in tea-picking attire carefully pick tea burgeons on Saturday at an event marking the arrival of the season for newly-harvested tea in Uji, Kyoto Prefecture.
The day fell on the 88th day since the day of the start of spring on the lunar calendar.
The Kyoto Prefecture Tea Industry Chamber said that new tea leaves grew well during April thanks to moderate rainfall and temperature fluctuations.
The price of Uji tea has skyrocketed due to the popularity of macha around the world, according to JA Zen-Noh Kyoto, with the total transaction value reaching a record of ¥10.384 billion, more than double the previous year.
