We did this at Krishima that November 2010 that Autumn trip.
green tea production keeps tea green by steaming tea leaves and parching in order to stop fermentation. After that, rough finishing is in the process of rubbing and drying. Finishing are in the process of selecting rough finished tea and drying as well as blending. Hand rubing production method. The purpose of rubbing tea is to force tea leaves in order that tea leaves organization and cell membranes are destroyed so that its ingredient will be obtained easily.In late 19th century (Meiji period), many hands rubbing tea production methods are invented. After that good points of many production methods were gathered and standardized to a tea production method ( 1953 method). Hence standard hand rubbing tea production method was determined. 
SteamingTea leaves are steamed in short time and cooled down rapidly (30seconds to 40 seconds.)
First rubbing
There are 3 process, Hafurui (selection tea leaves), Kaitenntumi (turning rubbing), Tamatoki ( untied tea lumps)
In the process of Hafurui, steamed tea leaves are sifted out equally and make tea leaves water 80%. (30 minutes to 50 minutes).
In the process of Tamatoki.tea lumps made from rubbing are untied.In the process of Kaitentsumi, tea leaves are forced in order that water in tea leaves evaporated
. In the beginning it is called Keikaiten (light turning).In the end of Kaitentsumi, it is called Jukaiten (heavy turning).
Waters in tea leaves are reduced to 50% (40minutes to 50 minutes).
In the process of Tamatoki.tea lumps made from rubbing are untied.
First processingAfter Tamatoki is done, tea leaves are out from tea hearth and cooled down rapidly as well as equalized water in tea leaves in order to do finishing rubbing easily.
In the process of Dengurimomi, tea leaves are rubbed to shaped needle like shape. (10 minutes to 20 minutes.)
In the process of Kokuri, tea leaves are shaped further and are polished to gloss. (10 minutes to 20 minutes).
DryingTea leaves are sprinkled and turned over few times as well as dried. Water of tea leaves reduced until 40% in this process. (30 minutes to 40 minutes).
There are many hand rubbing production methods such as Utita-ryu, Ogasamomikiri-ryu, Kouzu-ryu,Kaisin-ryu, Kaitou-ryu, Kawakami-ryu, Kyoukai ryu, Seito-ryu, Seicho-tyu, Kurakai-ryu, Tamuta-ryu.
