■ What is TEA&THINGS

"TEA&THINGS" is a regional media-type tea brand that offers fruit herbal teas made with regional off-spec fruits and multiple herbs, harmonizing the natural sweetness of fruits with the aroma of herbs. It was born in Fukushima Prefecture in 2022. It has been developed as an educational project in collaboration with Kokage Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Fukushima Prefecture, Representative Director: Sota Oshima), Seikō Gakuin High School (Location: Date City, Fukushima Prefecture), and Fukushima University students, who participate in planning, development, sales, and information dissemination.

Miracle Lab Co., Ltd. has joined the new system for brand development through tripartite collaboration, and will restart sales from the end of April 2026. As the first installment of the restart, two products, "REFRESH PEACH" and "RELAX APPLE," will be offered. In addition to the existing gift-style cylindrical packaging (3g x 5 bags), new options such as craft bag-style packaging (3g x 3 bags) that are easy to try for everyday use are planned, and we aim to provide a lineup that allows you to enjoy TEA&THINGS in a wider range of situations in the future.
Furthermore, in conjunction with the restart, some processes such as the filling of tea bags, which have been primarily handled by students, will be outsourced to welfare workplaces in Fukushima Prefecture, such as "At Home" (Type B Employment Support Business) of Rapport Izumi Co., Ltd.
