Organic Sencha Nanmei
The first Nanmei harvest of the year from Mr. Ljichi in Kagoshima.
This organic Sencha is a single cultivar Nanmei grown in full sunlight with no shading before harvest by Mr. Ijichi in Kagoshima. The nanmei is a young cultivar created in 2012 in Kagoshima from the cultivars Sayamakaori and Makurazaki. It is ideal for organic production and is harvested in the early spring. Nanmei is characterized by intense green leaves and a clear and balanced tea with both umami and sweet bitterness.
In the cup: A buttery aroma and a clear light-yellow tea. The first flush brings out a slight citrus aroma, where the second infusion brings out more vegetable like notes.
