Japanese Green Tea, The Perfect Cup | Fuji Story ★ ONLY in JAPAN

[@runAwayJapan]

Thanks so much for having me with you this time, John! Great job on the video! I hope people love seeing this and then have a laugh at my behind the scenes video. Let's do it again soon! 😍🚴🍵

[@roguethorne9827]

These days though, green tea is cropping up more in teabag form and, at least in London, you can find many of these drinks in Asian supermarkets. Love them as they are often not sweet which makes them feel so much more refreshing!

[@YTCookieNinja]

I was not expecting that ending haha

[@Psychol-Snooper]

People that did not stay til the end missed out! That was so unexpected!

Bungee!!

[@AverytheCubanAmerican]

The beautiful Mount Fuji area... the absolute perfect place to produce green tea. Now that is top-quality green tea! And that shot of Fuji in the background with the Shinkansen is quite the Japanese shot. Traveling by bike is the best way to explore places, it's how you really dive into the area and see what it has to offer.

[@spinncook7402]

I am a coffee drinker, but I really love Genmaicha! The mix of the rice and tea is a really pleasant taste.

[@Menace2Society7701]

I like both, balance is key.

[@shown1168]

英語で丁寧に緑茶を紹介してくれてありがとうございます。

[@DanNak]

Can't believe one man is making these videos. Quality is that of proper tv shows with huge budgets and production team.

[@jason_from_canada]

I drink both tea 🍵 and coffee ☕ as I enjoy the flavor aspects of both. Beautifully shot and informative John. Good to see Dean join you. Kudos to you for that epic bungee jump! 👍

[@Menace2Society7701]

Yep like both

[@onlynice9567]

Yes, John. I already switched to pure green tea from coffee years ago for no reason. I just recently found out the enormous amount of benefits it gives to our body, and I am really happy 😃 One thing I noticed, my skin has always been glowing- I am close to my 30's and no wrinkles at all. P.S. I am brewing green tea between 90-100°C for 5-10 mins. 1 -2 cups per day after my last meal.

[@tiffanieelek8740]

I’ve been drinking green tea since I was a teenager, I’m now in my mid forties. I never put sweeteners in my tea, I feel that disrespects the tea. Plus it tastes funny. Lol I can’t imagine my life without it! The health benefits are so amazing!

[@ochaboy521]

I have switched to green tea many years a go. Every day I am having a bowl of matcha + cup or two of sencha / gyokuro. Japanese green tea is the best. Great video.

[@UFOBobTV]

This was a fascinating look into the the world of Japanese Green Tea. I had no idea of the variety of teas and the difference that temperature makes in the taste.

[@ntr10me]

🍵 I hated my first bottled green tea when I arrived in Shinjuku . It was so bitter and unpleasant. Now it's the only type of tea I thoroughly enjoy. The soothing quality of it is irreplaceable. Thanks, John. This has got 'love letter to green tea' written all over the episode. 🍵

[@onlyinjapan]

When you get past that first few, a new taste your body doesn’t register, it becomes refreshing! I was the same - with beer and coffee too 😂 and broccoli 🥦

[@KiraDemian]

same to me

[@__aceofspades]

Thats weird to me too. The #1 bottled green tea brand in Japan is also sold worldwide and it honestly tastes bitter and bland, also its pee colored. The high quality loose leaf I buy direct from Japanese farmers brews into an almost neon green, and is naturally sweet. Personally I prefer the fresh loose leaf, and still find it weird Japan loves the bottled stuff when they having amazing tea a few miles away.

[@nathanchang7713]

The more bitter the stronger it is, I hated bitter tea or just tea in general but now I can’t drink those cheap tea bag kind of tea, it’s too bland for me I need it to be very strong

[@onlyinjapan]

@@__aceofspades they like bottled stuff the same reason why microwaveable food is popular world wide in developed countries - no time, disposable income. I do hope younger Japanese learn about ocha because for many of my friends, they didn’t know how water temperature controls sweetness-bitterness and the variety preparation. Interesting! Also, coffee is just better marketed. We don’t see ocha houses like coffee houses. It’s not cool.

[@michaelmelendrez5039]

I would love the animated intro as a "tea" shirt 😂.

[@onlyinjapan]

😂

[@theblessingrain]

That's so much to learn about tea, it's sophisticated yet elegant. I drink both tea and coffee in a daily basis. Most of the time, I will start the day with a cup of coffee and sipping tea through out the day. I especially like a cup of Matcha right after meal, that's THE best way to finish a meal in my opinion. I didn't expected the ending of the video, but I ENJOYED it very much. Thanks John and Dean!

[@jeffstumpf9129]

This is my favorite kind of John Daub video. Thanks, John!

[@Tastychronicles]

By the way, I love that you added the bungee jump. That's was a beautiful gorge underneath the bridge. An irresistible view of the colorful landscape of Japan.

[@Ken-iu2zp]

Are you Japanese?

[@RobbC.]

I remember my 1st trip to Japan, buying a bottle of green tea from the local DonQi. I took one mouthful and was pretty sure I had picked up cooking oil instead of green tea. Never again! However, I now find myself looking on Amazon for some sencha, a proper tea pot, and youtube instructions of how to make it properly. Looking forward to my first real experience, coming from a lifelong coffee addict, it should be fun!. Thanks john & Dean, great to see you collab again.

[@akapantsusenpai181]

When I'm in Japan, I tend to drink more tea than coffee. This was an awesome video, John. I didn't know the difference between sencha and hojicha, but now I do.

[@MrWade-kf7su]

Enjoying my cup of refreshing green tea while watching this episode!!!

[@karly7567]

Yesss, happy to see you back.

[@sm1thereens]

Top 5 channels on youtube 100%, keep it up John!

[@SheppardP90]

Very nice and instructive episode 🙂 The bungee scene 🤣

[@BennyTheAzn]

That ending though... LOL... Very brave, John.

[@nadinegel]

The tea farm is absolutely stunning and beautiful‼️🌿♥️ Loving 🥰 this video and thank you John for the opportunity to learn about the tea of Japan. Jump is a surprise at the end👏👏👏👏👏😄

[@robertmagbiro1624]

Ilove Japanese green tea,and green tea from Mount Fuji is special.

[@massimobrocchini]

Another outstanding video! Thank you John so much for your work on the platform!

[@mrs.quills7061]

What stunning footage, you’re lucky you got so many shots of Fuji on a clear day! I’m happy how this turned out, I would love to try more authentic teas like this. I usually drink herbal tea to help combat my anxiety and help me sleep, so it’s interesting to see how the heat can affect the properties. Never was a fan of coffee or black tea though. They’re too strong for me and caffeine can give me headaches. It’s just amazing the amount of detail goes into producing green teas in Japan.

[@cysage5876]

The farm’s atmosphere is so great

[@Pariya555]

Yes! Back to these mini stories/documentaries! Love it!

[@tamalpias]

I drink tea many times a week, jasmin tea is my favorite

[@onlyinjapan]

Ooh! Jasmine Tea is so good too! I backpacked China in 2000-2001 and would sip tea on long train rides for days. Now everything is so fast. Jasmine tea to me = slow down and relax 😌

[@bikecommuter24]

As a long time Green Tea drinker I enjoyed this. 😃

[@HongKongHoods]

Brilliant video! Very informative with the information well presented. Beautiful shots, and as for the ending...you're a braver man than I!

[@WidowMaker-est75]

Green tea has always been my secondary to coffee, as in I drink my morning coffee then green tea all day long. Helps me get through my day and in the winter months I squeeze a lemon slice and a few slivers of ginger as an immune boost to help fight off anything coming my way. This is a great video on the different benefits to green tea.

[@jkoadventures7401]

Sugoi! SO much information about Green tea! Beautiful scenery also. Thank you, John! 💞

[@REVIEWSONTHERUN]

Wow! Interesting story and amazing filming. Beautiful place and nice work John. ✌️

[@tech1238]

Sorry I missed the notification for this! Thanks for the high quality work ❤️

[@splashmanjr]

High Quality Production Value!!!! Keep up the great work!!!

[@lofishorts8255]

I love this format, a quick and an efficient way to tell a story.

[@primus699]

I truly enjoy your work, my girlfriend is born and raised in Tokyo Japan and I am learning so much from her, and you are my bonus, I am glad I stumbled upon your platform. Thank you

[@alexandertirasongkran6224]

this is a very informative video about japanese tea. thank you john for making this video and we can't wait to see the next video.

[@myblacktears0921]

Omg! That ending part 🤣😂.. I was not expecting that!!! Thanks for the new video John, I always like to learn new things around Japan. I love coffee and tea, with my tea I’m trying to get use to it drinking them without sugar. For coffee it has to be a latte, the milk and sugar helps my stomach and my brain to keep going during the night. I work at a hospital, so drinking coffee is a must! Specially these days when the work load is really heavy. Sometimes I do change drinking coffee to green tea.

[@gerardcamphens3578]

John Thanks for this documentary, I enjoyed and very interesting too. I switch over to Green Tea and it's healthy too. It's was a very interesting trip you made with Dean.The ending was cool. 🙏 Arigato. John

[@ashutosh821991]

Beautiful video John. the last screaming bungee jump was awaited much.....thank you for letting us see, u screaming again😂😂🤣🤣👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@stevenhuynh1194]

I drink tea every day for the past twenty years, but I just gained most my knowledge about tea in past twenty minutes. Thanks John!

[@joenoah9906]

green tea is simp-le but yet has so much depth.

[@Menace2Society7701]

Yep simple, though very powerful and complicated in it's on way. It's kind of crazy how many overlook it or under appreciate it. I have certain seasons and time I would drink it on a daily basis. Then stop so my body doesn't get use to it all the time. It's a great tool in ones own health and well being. I also love coffee, but I keep it balanced

[@J3unG]

Almost to 100K John. Congratulations!!

[@ivantirtakusuma]

Awesome content as always Mr. John Daub!

[@Goku95a]

I love green tea 🍵 Beautiful shots and very interesting video, good job John 😄

[@lofishorts8255]

The camera angles are so good, I'm impressed knowing this was made by one person.

[@em_birch]

I think it has to be more than one. For instance, that drone shot at the beginning wasn't being controlled/filmed by John.

[@starwarsxexocollab1393]

Really enjoy this video thank you so much John and Only in Japan production! 🥺❤️😍😘💕

[@NekoWinters]

Just saying, in 30 minutes John has over 10% the views a certain other channel has from a video thats been up for 30 DAYS... if that's not proof of John's high quality production and hard work pays off I don't know what is... success is the best way to open a new chapter in life, I hope John's 2021 is full of joy and prosperity!!

[@mrs.quills7061]

That’s because he’s not try to shill for money and clickbait for views. He also has cinematic b roll and thoughtful thumbnails. Too many people thing you can win the KZbin lottery with junk content, maybe you’ll get viral once but no one will remember you after a while. John’s new channel has been constantly growing and he’s been gaining more patreon supporters.

[@robng9064]

facts

[@MM-dq9pv]

That is because it is as much a work of art as it is a work of love. John really loves what he does, and it shows. He gives it all he has and that is felt. I think his narration, story telling and atmosphere in each episode is umatched.

[@einfachnurleo7099]

@@MM-dq9pv exactly! He has the experience and the love and everything. He started out small too and slowly found his way. Now that he started a different channel many still haven´t realized that he shwitched and simply forgot the old channel. Now he has to win them all back a second time.. though that won´t be a problem.

[@asimplename01]

Very informative! Never seen the difference between brewing temperatures explained so clearly.

[@katieao8]

観ていてほっこりするような、あたたかい癒しの動画をありがとうございます！

[@_Pumpkin_Seed_]

My favorite video of Only in Japan. I love green tea!

[@jennifersantos3918]

I thoroughly enjoyed this video, and it’s very informative. You really make beautiful videos. I always wondered why some use tiny bowls to drink the tea. Makes sense. I can’t wait to see the upcoming ones. Love the bungee jump!

[@aprasert]

Love this format over the blog walks. Either way thanks for creating great content!

[@thepowerstation2702]

Thank you 🙏 John for a high quality video packed full of information and content. ✌️ 💖 🙏 Levent 🦁

[@Brandania_moble]

Green Tea is awesome! Now it's AWESOMER after watching this! I've been drinking Green Tea since I was a kid and never knew about the different water temperatures bringing out a different taste. Must experiment with the water now. 😄 Thank you John for another beautiful, inspiring, informative and amazing episode. Looking forward to learning more about Green Tea. Keep up the awesomeness 😁🤙

[@ryanh.5529]

Thanks for sharing this show! It is good to learn more about Japanese tea making and drinking.

[@aliasmarg8ta127]

I love the scent of genmaicha. I am a tea-aholic and I loved this video so much. I would probably re-watch it a few times. 11:26 how adorable!

[@astroboy3507]

Great to see a new!!!! Episode on the ONLY IN JAPAN CHANNEL!!!!! And I love green tea!!!! 💚💚🍵🍵 can’t say I have tried them all ? But sencha and genmaicha love the smell of the brown rice in it!!!! Love to line them all up and try them all to really compare!!!!! ♥️ I drink plain water but when I relax it’s always green teas or sometimes other teas like earl grey or peppermint teas or chai Great educational vid John!!!! 👍🏻👍🏻 P.s we got to see that bungee jump John!!!!🤣

[@jaydkaladcamper]

i remember 1st time drinking a vendo greentea in Japan, i was expecting a sweet taste, but it turned out better for me. i instanly liked it. i drink it everyday using hot water. i even buy the dried greentea packs whenever i go to Japan to take it home for me and my family.

[@gonchan1624]

静岡、京都、福岡...産地によって緑茶の味は異なります。是非、色々な産地の緑茶を試してみてください🍵

[@eikomartin8078]

My family is from Fuji and it's so good to see that someone is finally doing a video on the tea there! Thank you!

[@onlyinjapan]

I lived in Fujinomiya back in 2000 and loved it there. I’ll be back again soon :)

[@AShuffington]

Very quality production, John. Informative and enjoyable. Thanks for your hard work and dedication.

[@qinetiq09]

Absolutely loved this video John. Thanks so much. I learnt quite alot and appreciate more about Tea and enjoyed the Bungee Jump at the end. Keep up the quality content.

[@firestar1728]

Wonderful views of Fuji, the shinkansen and the tea farms. This is a Deep education on Green Tea! I was raised on black tea with sweet milk and grew to hate tea. Now after weaning myself off sugar in tea and coffee I love it. You really can tell the difference when water temp is altered. Thanks John and look forward to the next class/instalment later in the year.

[@onlyinjapan]

I’m so happy to hear from you and I’m trying my way to wean off sugar and coffee. I’m really excited about going to the harvest in May.

[@TorToroPorco]

Well this episode had a bit of everything, informative, great scenery, and daredevil stunts! The part about the different water temperatures was the best part (other than the bungee jump) as I can now experiment and adjust to suit my taste. I only started drinking green tea when I began eating at Japanese restaurants. On its own I usually only drink it during the winter months. My favourite when dining is the Genmaicha, I find the popped rice stimulates my appetite.

[@Paintplayer1]

Incredible quality and information of these videos aside, John truly does the most for his viewers, as evidenced by that bungie jump shot

[@dougclark6696]

A most enjoyable video; opening drone shots of Fuji-san were spectacular. And I'll try brewing tea at various temperatures, now.

[@nascar6373]

This was a really informative video. I really want to try some different types of green tea now. The cinematography was great in this video. So many cool shots from different angles.

[@GeckoOnTheWall]

Another reason to visit Japan, trying Green Tea from the source! Thanks John for another interesting peek into Japan 🇯🇵

[@matsounds]

Green Tea is yummy! I absolutely love these kind of videos and I really wish you would do more of them.

[@sinisterisrandom8537]

1 word to describe this video. Heaven.

[@ma.esther9637]

Japanese TEA is THE BEST in the WORLD👍👍👍 Thank you for all the info. Every time I visit Japan I always buy tea for gifts❤️👏😀😀

[@audrey.c1]

I was having too much coffee for a teenager! Like way too much! at the age of 17 i made the switch. I no longer drink caffeinated coffee, only decaf. It makes me sick, I can't handle the caffeine that is found in it. Now if I need caffeine, I go for tea and I have never looked back. I feel like tea is much better and I don't have this wild crash in the afternoon that leaves me feeling exhausted.

[@nandemone1787]

YOU ALWAYS PROVIDE SO MUCH LEARNING CONTENT W/ AN AMAZING STORYTELLING ❤️❤️❤️

That ending looks fun. Great video and look forward to learning more in this series. Thanks, John.

You've increased my appreciation of green tea tenfold.😎
