Kabuse No. 1 tea bag - organic Japan green tea (16x3g)

Half-shade teas from the first picking have an aromatic touch of sweetness due to their increased thine content, paired with a fine bitterness and fresh green. For this shaded Sencha from the first main picking, the first leaves that sprout on the tea bush are harvested. Kabusecha is green tea for the production of which the tea plants are shaded, which means that they develop a high content of chlorophyll and other active substances and at the same time few bitter substances. Their characteristic "shadow aroma" is called "ooika". Like many KEIKO teas, this tea is an intensely steamed tea (Fukamushi-cha, 100 - 120 seconds steaming time). Due to the gentle steaming, the leaf pores open and the extracts from the tea leaf get into the water more easily and quickly. This can be recognized by the deep green tea color in the cup and the yield of the tea - with top quality, up to 5 infusions are possible! In order to preserve the valuable aromas and ingredients of the tea as best as possible, we ask you to close the bag tightly and store it in the refrigerator or freezer in a cool and dark place. Kabuse No. 1 is the top tea of the first main picking in May. It has a full, lively aroma and a bright green, delicately scented cup.
