Mampei Hotel Launches Original Herb Tea 'Komorebi' for Refreshing Summer Moments

Introducing 'Komorebi': A Refreshing Herbal Tea from Mampei Hotel

Mampei Hotel, located in the charming town of Karuizawa, Nagano, will unveil its latest creation, the 'Komorebi' herbal tea, on August 14, 2026. This new addition marks the fourth installment of the hotel's original herbal tea series, following the successful releases of 'Asayake', 'Harukasumi', and 'Hidamari'. The 'Komorebi' tea embodies the serene moments spent under dappled sunlight in the hotel's tranquil courtyard.

A Harmonious Blend of Freshness

The unique blend features invigorating citrus herbs like lemongrass combined with peppermint, resulting in a crisp aroma and refreshing aftertaste. Each sip promises a delightful experience that invigorates both the senses and the spirit. For a playful twist, adding lemon transforms the tea's color to a lovely pink, allowing patrons to enjoy a visual treat alongside the rich flavors.

A Design Inspired by Nature

The packaging design draws inspiration from the floral patterns found in the hotel's Main Dining Room, a tradition that dates back to the Taisho era. The canister is adorned with vibrant illustrations of summer flowers such as sunflowers and lilies, reflecting the essence of the season. The design parallels the recently released 'Flower Cookies Can – Summer', creating a cohesive aesthetic across the hotel’s products.

A Tea to Savor

'Komorebi' is poised to bring moments of tranquility into daily life with its refreshing flavor profile and inviting colors. It encapsulates the gentle light and clear breezes characteristic of Karuizawa, making it perfect for a peaceful tea time experience.
