Research notes

Note: some third-party retailers/resellers spell this cultivar 'Saekari' (one 'a' dropped) -- e.g. The Roasters Pack and Kinkan Gifts listings -- while the official rockysmatcha.com page and product URL use 'Saeakari'. Flagging as a spelling variant across sources, not a contradiction on the official page itself.
