Discover the aromas and flavors of Yame through a special dinner course featuring locally grown tea and herbs. YAME TERROIR is a collaboration between Grand Hyatt Fukuoka and Nakamuraen, a Yame-based producer that cultivates and processes its own teas and herbs, emphasizing their natural fragrances and distinctive characteristics.<\/p>\n

The menu incorporates ingredients such as mugwort, lemongrass, rosemary, chamomile, sage, matcha, and hojicha into a series of creative dishes. Highlights include grilled tilefish with Yame tea and basil sauce, smoked Hakata Wagyu marinated in hojicha, and a matcha and chocolate mille-feuille.

On November 7, Grand Hyatt Fukuoka will host a special one-night dinner limited to 40 guests. Kenichi Nakamura, head of Nakamuraen, will also share insights into the cultivation and production of Yame tea and herbs, offering a closer look at the ingredients behind the experience.<\/p>\n
