The origin of
Mîtécha was in everyday
casual conversation
Spirit of Foreign Trade,
Challenge, Pioneer,
Welcome
and Visit
The birth of Mîtécha comes from conversations in foreign languages. A business concept elaborated for several years,
all ideas bloomed in January 2014,
from a casual conversation with my longtime best friend,
a Frenchman who loves tea, while staying at his home in France.
His passion for life is all for motorcycles …,
My current passion is all for Japanese tea …,
a coincidence created by the keyword of "Passion"!He was born in Le Mans, France, a global sanctuary place for motorsports.
I was born in Suzuka city, Mie prefecture, Japan, where there is a world-famous international racing circuit,
and at the same time, one of the major Japanese tea production areas in Japan.The birth of our Japanese tea business as a result of many accidental gifts!One more important facotr for our company birth,a connection with an owner of a high-class tea shop in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, where I visited before returning to Japan at this time, in January 2014.
In her case, her knowledge and "Passion" for fine Chinese tea.
Here too, "Passion" created a connection.
Our first official order received from her in 2014.In May 2014, we officially established Mîté Co., Ltd. and our challenging adventure was started with "Passion".
Origin of
our organic Japanese tea
first production
in Tsu city, Mie prefecture
Efforts for sustainable
organic Japanese tea
production
Our first tea garden for a Japanese tea development for overseas market is located in Mie prefecture, in a mountainous area with abundant nature, clear air and clean water.
In this area our first exported Japanese tea was produced and shipped to the Netherlands.Is this fact a coincidence of necessity?
It is one of the best areas in Japan to pass the pesticide residue regulations, defined in overseas countries,
which is one of the barriers to realize exportation of Japanese tea for European countries.As of May 2014, myself I had been lived abroad for more than 10 years, especially in different countries in Europe.
This fact is also a coincidence related to my life experience, the first exportation realized from Mie to Europe.
