Nice tea. Not crazy about it. Maybe I need to experiment more with brewing it, since I don’t even really know what it is. (Anyone read Japanese?) It’s not very sweet, but also doesn’t have a strong umami flavor either. It’s a nice, mellow, vegetal green tea.

I could be wrong about the name. I found the name off of this blog: http://miya-koma.com/blog/page/10/ Wikipedia says the name means “morning sun”, and it also appears to be a very common place name.

sounds like the perfect name for a japanese lager right? its seriously crisp and dry and fizzy if you ever get the chance

I know I’ve seen it, but I don’t usually drink. Hence, the obsession with tea.

Bio

Tea means so many things to me, it is so deep and it is revealing new meaning to me all the time.

Tea is a mindfulness practice, and a doorway through which to explore different philosophies, cultures, and historical times. Tea is hospitality and a way of communion. Tea is an art, a ritual, and a tradition. Tea is a complement to the foods I eat (preferably vegan desserts) and is something I enjoy collecting and curating.

I love to swap, or even just send people samples, so if there’s anything in my cupboard you’d like to try, just send me a message!
