Farmer:
Master Sakamoto has been cultivating organic gyokuro since 1985. He is a renowned expert in Japan, rightly nicknamed the 'gyokuro guru' for his vast knowledge and achievements. His teas, at any time, disprove the claim that you cannot grow good gyokuro without artificial fertilizers. Among other things, he has invented and produces his own kind of organic fertilizer, promotes organic farming and tries to help farmers who want to switch to it. His whole approach is based on a holistic view of soil, plants and people as part of a whole.
