Description

Exclusive Sencha from organically grown Tsuyuhikari cultivar from Shizuoka Prefecture. This is a rarity, as this cultivar represents less than 1% of Japanese production. The leaf is dark green, shiny, shaped into nice long needles. The infusion is clear, light green, Hikari means light. Floral tones appear in the scent of the leaves. The taste is delicious and balanced. Aftertaste is sweet, juicy with a medium duration. This tea is only available in limited quantities. In our opinion, this was the best senchu from our offer of the 2020 season from the Shizuoka area.
