Description

This steamed green tea brings the sweetness of sencha and the richness of gyokuro into perfect equilibrium. Kabusecha – “covered tea” – is grown in the shade for the last two weeks before picking, creating a complex flavour that combines both light and dark notes. It’s always taken from the first pluck of the season – taste it and discover the way its mellow balance perfectly captures the freshness of spring.
