Die chinesische Matcha-Produktion wächst rasant, was in Japan Bedenken hinsichtlich der Konkurrenz hervorruft

>In 2018, the company built a large factory in the city and began full-scale matcha production, **inviting experts from Japan. Now, production is staffed entirely by Chinese technicians**, and they use big data to manage everything from the growth of the tea leaves to consumer trends.

I feel like I’ve read the same story 100 different times in the last 5 years

i think its fine, chinese have been growing tea for centuries anyway.

only see it as a problem when they start labeling their products as japanese matcha, like this

I mean, the Chinese originally developed green tea in the first place. As long as they label the product origin properly, the consumer has more choice and likely lower prices.

lmao green tea is originally chinese??
