The average price of tencha-type crude tea produced in 2023 in Japan exceeded three thousand Japanese yen per kilogram. Tencha refers to the plucked and processed tea leaves that are ground into matcha. Gyokuro, the category with the second-highest unit price, refers to a type of green tea grown under the shade of straw mats for several weeks before being harvested, similar to tencha. However, this variety is commonly consumed as rolled leaves instead of in powder form. The price of crude green tea in Japan is influenced by the type, the harvest season, and the quality of tea leaves, with the young leaves of the first harvest of a year commonly reaching a higher price point.
