[A clear flavor born from the nature of Kirishima and the light-steaming method] This product is a light-steamed sencha made exclusively with first-grade tea from Kirishima, Kagoshima Prefecture. Grown in a cool, foggy climate with large temperature fluctuations, the tea leaves are characterized by their beautiful needle-like shape and clear golden yellow color. The traditional method, which shortens the steaming time, allows the tea leaves' original refreshing aroma and natural sweetness to shine through.
[For a wide range of uses, from everyday meals to serving to guests and as a gift] This elegant, robust tea has a mild flavor and is perfect for a wide range of occasions, from morning tea to after-meal tea and entertaining guests. Its easy-to-drink flavor is perfect for both Japanese tea lovers and those who don't usually drink much green tea, making it a great gift, New Year's present, or souvenir.
[The unique aroma and refined sweetness of first-picked tea] We use only the first-picked tea of the year. It is characterized by the strong aroma of young buds and a clear taste with few impurities. The refreshing feeling of light steaming and the gentle sweetness that lingers in the aftertaste clearly distinguish it from other sencha.
Easy to handle and practical for multiple brews: The firm tea leaves allow for easy drainage, allowing for delicious second and third brews. Brewing 8g tea leaves for one serving in 80°C water for approximately 60 seconds produces an ideal cup with a balanced aroma and sweetness. Another appealing feature is its practicality, making it easy to incorporate into your daily routine.
[Connoisseurship and roasting with over 100 years of experience] Inheriting the skills and experience of tea merchants dating back to the Taisho era, we carefully assess the condition of the tea leaves and roast them to the optimum temperature. Rather than mass production, we prioritize flavor and aroma, and continue to pursue the creation of truly delicious Kagoshima tea.
