The collective name for tea produced in Mie Prefecture. In the Hokusei area at the foot of the Suzuka Mountains, kabusecha shaded from direct sunlight before harvest is the main type, while the central and southern areas mainly make deep-steamed sencha. Records say tea was made at a temple in Yokkaichi in the Heian period, and Ise Province was a major tea region in the Edo period.
