Sencha Okuyutaka Japanese Green Tea from Kagoshima - character and origin from Kagoshima
Sencha Okuyutaka Japanese Green Tea from Kagoshima, on the southern island of Kyushu. This Sencha is made from the Okuyutaka cultivar and combines a full aroma with the fresh, refined character of Japanese green tea. Soft umami and fresh vegetal nuances come together beautifully in the flavour. The tea is aromatic and refreshing, with enough depth without becoming heavy. This makes the Sencha both approachable and interesting for lovers of Japanese green tea. After harvesting, the leaves are heated with steam to quickly stop oxidation and preserve their fresh green character. The combination of the Okuyutaka cultivar and its origin in Kagoshima gives this Sencha its own place within the wide range of Japanese green teas.
