Yame City is renowned for its premium gyokuro. Yame City includes tea-growing areas such as Hoshino Village, Joyo Town, Tachibana Town, and Kurogi Town. The region’s mountainous terrain creates significant temperature differences between day and night. Morning mist often covers the hills, forming a unique terroir that shapes the character of the tea.
