Sayama tea is a type of tea that, as the name suggests, is traditionally known as a specialty of Saitama Prefecture. However, it is also known as Tokyo Sayama tea, recognized as a specialty of Tokyo. This article will address the question: How can Sayama tea be associated with Tokyo? Is there such a thing as Tokyo Sayama tea?<\/p>

\"\"<\/figure>

First, Sayama tea from Saitama Prefecture is mainly produced in the Sayama Hills region, centered around Iruma City, Tokorozawa City, and Sayama City.<\/p>

The red-highlighted area on the map below shows the Sayama Hills region. You can see that this region spans across both Saitama and Tokyo.<\/p>

Next, Tokyo Sayama tea is primarily produced in Higashiyamato City, Musashimurayama City, and Mizuho Town.<\/p>

The red-highlighted area on the map below shows the main production region for Tokyo Sayama tea. It’s the same region as the Sayama Hills area mentioned earlier.<\/p>

\"\"<\/figure>

So, Sayama tea is indeed grown in the Sayama Hills region, which spans both Saitama and Tokyo. Due to this overlap, Sayama tea produced in Tokyo started being called Tokyo Sayama tea around 1964.<\/p>

That concludes the somewhat complex but clarifying story of Sayama tea and Tokyo Sayama tea!<\/p>
