About

MARUZEN Tea Roastery Asakusa (マルゼンティーロースタリー 浅草店) opened on May 1, 2025, in 1-chome Asakusa, Taito City, near Asakusa Station (浅草駅) on the Tokyo Metro Ginza Line, Toei Asakusa Line, and Tsukuba Express. It is a Japanese tea and gelato café from Shizuoka (静岡). Run by Maruzen Seicha (丸善製茶), a Shizuoka tea wholesaler with more than 70 years of history, the shop has an in-house roasting workshop. It is the world's first "Japanese tea and gelato café where you can choose the roasting temperature," using only first-flush tea (一番茶) from Shizuoka.

— Choose the roasting temperature: a shop for Shizuoka first-flush tea

The signature is first-flush tea (一番茶) from Shizuoka Prefecture, roasted in the shop's in-house workshop. The leaves come from light-steamed tea from the Ryogoku area and deep-steamed tea from Morimachi — both first-flush only. The biggest feature is that customers can choose the roasting temperature from five levels (80°C / 100°C / 130°C / 160°C / 200°C). Lower temperatures bring out a fresh, grassy aroma, while higher temperatures give a roasty aroma similar to hojicha (ほうじ茶). Even with the same leaves, the temperature changes the flavor completely. Each cup is hand-dripped one by one. The shop also offers "tea gelato" made with leaves roasted at different temperatures — a new kind of sweet where even the same leaves taste different depending on temperature. The parent company, Maruzen Seicha (丸善製茶), also has a flagship store on Gofukucho Shopping Street in Shizuoka City and is a representative brand of Shizuoka, the "city of tea". The Asakusa shop is well placed in 1-chome Asakusa, sharing Japanese tea culture with domestic and international visitors in a fresh way.
