# Sasa Tea: New leaves are harvested from the new bamboo that grows after mowing. After lightly washing and sun-drying, they are chopped into small pieces and roasted to make sasa tea! It has a fragrant aroma and a milder taste than green tea, so there are probably few people who dislike the flavor. It's also caffeine-free. It also has benefits such as preventing arteriosclerosis, suppressing high blood pressure and cholesterol absorption, and improving stomach symptoms. New leaves are usually only available in the spring. You can enjoy them in the summer too, especially in the mountains where bamboo has been mowed. # Bamboo Cutting # Sasa Sasa # Forestry # Small Forestry # Hokkaido # Forest # Forest # Hokkaido Timber # Firewood # Bed Logs # Hokkaido Forestry # Self-Logging Forestry # Sustainable Living # Living with Nature # Satoyama Management # Country Living # Forestry for Living with Nature # Under Nature
