Company description not available.
Beautiful aroma to this tea. Fresh sea breeze and seaweed. Produces an infusion that is almost iridescent.
Zest is also a good description, however the taste has not really been as complex as the aroma suggests. I am going to do several more infusions, and also a cold infusion and see what I get…
This is a good Sencha. Not really worth the price though.
I bought this as a sample at the tea festival, and I’m quite glad I did!
Very nice. Smooth, pungent, and a great balance. The roasted flavour adds a nice contrast to the mild seaweed vegetal notes. I wouldn’t go for this if you’re looking for a “fresh” tasting sencha, as the roastedness made it less so, but not in a lovely muted sort of way that reminds me of a gentle sea breeze. I’d buy it again, no question
This Sencha is from the 2015 June green tea leaves from Shouzou Japan. It has an interesting full bodied flavor. It is a light steamed green tea with a flavor aftertaste of sweet green vegetables and sweet grass and the tannins are very low. There is no bitterness and there is no astringency to this tea. This tea has a very high amount of antioxidants, around 2250 micromoles. Polyphenols is the type of antioxidants in green, black, Oolong, Pu erhs and white teas. This tea helps me relax and calms me down. This is a wonderful and good light green Sencha tea from Shouzou Japan just a little bit south of Toyko.
Flavors: Floral, Grass, Green Bell Peppers, Sweet
I got a sample (sachet) of this from the Tea Festival a couple weeks ago. I wasn’t expecting too much from it (I haven’t tried anything from this company before), and I was blown away. This tea is great. It is bold, zesty and even a little bit vegetal. It also has a slightly roasted flavour, which I really loved.
I think a road-trip is in my future to visit the Camellia Sinensis shop and see what else they have to offer.
A very pleasant asamushi sencha: softly marine with a slight roasted flavour in the first infusion, followed by a surprisingly muted astringency in the second. The third brew produces a refreshingly sweet liquor.
