From Fukujuen

Kabusecha is literally the covered tea. To make Kabusecha taster, the tea bushes are shaded from direct sunlight before harvest. Thanks to our traditional tea producing technique, Kabusecha ASATSUYU has a unique aroma and good taste.

Sipdown

Somehow I missed reviewing this tea until the day of sipdown?

This was a gift from Superanna and was purchased in Kyoto during her January trip to Japan. The steeping parameters on the package say to use a tablespoon of tea to just over an ounce of 160F-ish water and steep for two minutes.

We usually make it by the pot so I don’t use as much as the instructions call for. We get a marvelously fresh tasting green tea with lots of body. Today I even accidentally left it to steep too long because I was multitasking yet it was not at all bitter or sour. There is a brothy look to the tea from the particulates and it makes for a very satisfying cup or five.

Those are some bizarre steep instructions… it seems like the leaves would overflow out of the cup!
