Ryokucha Japanese green tea is a product made of semi-pulverized leaves that are excellent for obtaining a tasty infusion using both hot and cold water. The particular aspect of this tea represents a cross between a matcha and a sencha not only visually but also for its taste characteristics. This Ryokucha, in particular, has a fairly balanced flavor profile thanks to the skilful blend of leaves obtained from the Yutakamidori and Seamidori cultivars. When infused with hot water, this tea first reveals an intense flavor similar to that of soy sauce, followed by a refreshing vegetable touch of freshly cut grass. By cold infusing these leaves you can, however, appreciate the freshness of the product even better without giving up a delicate sweetness and pleasant sense of umami in the aftertaste. Place of origin: Kagoshima, Japan.
