Tenko - Organic Japan Green Tea (50g)

Like Tenbu Fuka and Soshun, Tenko, "a gift from heaven", a semi-shade green tea from the pre-picking at the end of April, has this "recurring taste" that lingers on the tongue for a long time. Tenko is jade green in the cup. A rich, fruity-fresh scent and a characterful, nutty taste are characteristic of this tea. 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. Like many KEIKO teas, this tea is an intensely steamed tea (Fukamushicha). The gentle steaming opens the leaf pores and the extract content of the tea is increased. This can be recognized by the cloudy, deep green cup and the yield of the tea - with top quality, up to 5 infusions are possible! In addition, intensely steamed early pickings are particularly suitable for cold infusions (mizudashi). Even with cold water, you will get an intense and refreshing iced tea after just a few minutes. Since the bitter substances do not develop so strongly in the cold, the sweet aromas of the Kabusecha come into their own. By the way, early pickings like the tenko also have a particularly high theanine content, which is noticeable by the sweet taste. 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. A rich, fruity-fresh fragrance, a characterful, slightly nutty taste and the strong jade-green cup color make this organic Japan green tea a "gift from heaven"
