Shizuoka matcha
Shizuoka Prefecture is one of Japan's two largest tea-growing prefectures, alongside Kagoshima, and is best known for sencha. Matcha from here is less associated with ceremonial tradition than Uji's, and prices in this database reflect that.
Brands under this heading disclosed only "Shizuoka" without a specific town.
