“Fourth tea for March Mad(Hatter)ness! This is for the green tea round, going against Fukujuen’s Gyokuro Karigane. Both teas were little tins that my friend Todd brought me back from a trip he took...” Read full tasting note

Description

Fukujuen’s Yamashiro Tea Factory is located in Yamashiro, Kyoto, the birth place of Ujicha. Fukujuen has nurtured the tradition of Ujicha for more than two centuries. Yamashiro Series of Ujicha are Japanese tea products using best tea leaves that were carefully selected, finished and blended by Fukujuen’s tea masters. Please use a tea pot to brew the tea. And enjoy making and drinking the cup of tea!

Directions (for 1 serving): Use 3g of tea leaf in 130ml of water (100C) and steep for 30 seconds. Adjust the volume of tea leaves and the steeping time as you like.

Be careful of hot water. Do not use leftover tea leaves again. Use up the contents as soon as possible. Store in a cool, dry place and void other lingering scents.
