hand-picked sencha futsumushi from Kawane, Koshun cultivar.
New version of an old classic ... This tea was harvested by hand from an unpruned tea garden (shizen-shitate) at 600m in altitude. In my opinion, this should be the staple for both culture and taste in Shizuoka teas.
Sweet and delicate, with a fresh almond taste.
