Minami Shinagawa chabako owner, Takahiro Okabe, grew up learning tea ceremony. Later, he would hold an event for Japanese tea to promote business for Kakegawa tea. When opening Tea of the Men, LLC, Takahiro would only serve one kind of Japanese tea: deep-steamed green tea. Here, he discovered that the best way to make Japanese tea depends on the type being served and went to learn from tea farmers and sellers and practice serving tea until they approved.
