Honyama-cha Premium Organic Sencha Japanese Green Tea 100g　静岡 本山茶 普通蒸し 有機煎茶

SOLD OUT

Honyama-cha, the oldest of Shizuoka Prefecture's tea production areas, is produced in the upper reaches of the Abe River, which flows through central Shizuoka Prefecture, and is one of the three major regional brand teas in Shizuoka Prefecture.
The tea gardens in the mountainous areas along the river are shrouded in river mist, and the leaf flesh is softer than that of tea grown on the plains, making it elegant and gentle on the palate, with a fresh and distinctive aroma. This aroma is also called "mountain aroma" and is one of the main characteristics of Honyama-cha.
This single-origin, first-picked Honyama tea is produced at an organic tea plantation over 800 meters above sea level that has been making tea for generations for over 100 years.
Honyama tea has a perfect balance of mild sweet flavor and moderate bitterness. Because of these characteristics, it is also called natural Gyokuro.
It is recommended to drink it at a lukewarm temperature of 80℃ or lower with a short steeping time, or to brew it with water.
