WHAT IS THE NATAMAME (JACKBEAN)?
The “Jack and the Bean Stalk” story was created based on the jackbean. The jackbean shape is as a NATA (agricultural tool shaped as a sword), the village people in Japan call it NATA MAME (bean). Its vines grow to approximately 6 meters (20 ft). The farmers in the region of Tamba (丹波), Hyogo, Japan grow jackbean without any chemical pesticide. We roast the jackbeans after carefully selecting the best jackbeans. Its taste is well known as "slightly sweet and aromatic, and very easy to drink". We have many customers from Japan and around the world who purchase and enjoy our jackbean tea.Summary of Jackbean
