In the cup, the tea is smooth and harmonious, with delicate vegetal freshness and subtle, characteristic notes of seaweed. The bitterness remains pleasantly restrained.
“Shincha” means “new tea” and refers to freshly processed green tea from the first harvest of spring. At this time of year, the young shoots are particularly tender and rich in fresh, nuanced aromas. An elegant and expressive spring tea for lovers of classic Japanese green teas.
