■ About TEA&THINGS

"TEA&THINGS" is a regional media-type tea brand that provides fruit herb teas made from regional, non-standard fruits and multiple herbs, harmonizing the natural sweetness of fruits with the aroma of herbs. It was born in Fukushima Prefecture in 2022. Students from Kokage Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Fukushima, Representative Director: Sota Oshima), Seikoh Gakuin High School (Location: Date City, Fukushima), and Fukushima University have collaborated, participating in planning, development, sales, and information dissemination as an educational project.

Mirai-cru Lab has joined the new brand development system in collaboration with these three parties, and resales will begin at the end of April 2026. As the first phase of resales, two products, "REFRESH PEACH" and "RELAX APPLE," will be offered. In addition to the existing cylindrical gift packaging (3g x 5 bags), new craft bag packaging (3g x 3 bags), which is easy to try for everyday use, is also planned, and in the future, a lineup will be prepared to enjoy TEA&THINGS in a wider range of scenes.
Furthermore, with the resale, some processes such as filling tea bags, which were previously handled mainly by students, will be outsourced to Fukushima Prefecture welfare workshops such as Rapport泉 Co., Ltd.'s "Employment Support B-type Business 'At Home'."

Under the concept of "an experiential brand that feels the stories of the region and people through tea," we are reviewing our manufacturing and sales methods, working to give back to the region, and enhancing the product's sustainability and further reach. In the future,...
