Okumidori is the name of a cultivar bred in the 70s of the XX century by crossing the varieties Yabukita and Shizuoka Dzairai. This is a late variety, characterized by low astringency and freshness of aroma. Spring harvest 2021.
In appearance: thin, green fragments of twisted tea leaves. The fragrance is intensive, grassy-floral. The liquor is slightly cloudy, with a bright yellowish-green shade.
The bouquet of the ready-made tea is fresh, grassy-floral with a nutty note. The fragrance is tender, grassy-floral. The taste is full-bodied and mellow, oily and sweet, with a delicate fruity sourness and lingering aftertaste.
«Sencha Okumidori» is an excellent choice for an emotional reboot: rich taste, fresh aroma and invigorating sensations.
Company description not available.
I’m honestly shocked how good this sencha is, given that Japanese tea is not at all Moychay’s specialty. Nice thick texture, and the flavor is intense but not at all bitter; kind of one-note sweet grass, but I don’t mind that. It can stand up to boiling water, too, and the price (as with most things at Moychay) is very reasonable.
Flavors: Apple, Grass, Sweet, Warm Grass
Okumidori is by far one of my favorite cultivars for Japanese teas. You can use it for sencha, Gyokuro, Matcha.. etc and I feel like I always find the same notes I love in it.
