High quality fukamushi sencha from Makinohara, Shizuoka. Makinohara is one of the biggest fukamushi sencha production areas in Japan, known for tea that is abundant in both flavor and aroma. It is made of very young leaves that naturally contain a high level of L-theanine (an amino acid). 

Origin: Makinohara, Shizuoka
Harvest: First Flush
Cultivar: Yabukita

Tasting Profile:
The initial sip may be a little astringent, but the tea later becomes more mellow. It brews a nice, deep green color and the aroma is smooth, almost sweet. The dry leaves have a rich green color and the classic oily character that high quality fukamushi sencha have.


Den's Preferred Brewing:

Leaf-water ratio: 2-3 g (~1 tsp)/4 oz
Water: 160°F; Steep: 45 sec
2nd Cup Water: 180°F; Steep 15 sec
