This sencha is made from Kirari 31, a cultivar prized for its high amino acid content, vibrant green colour, and naturally sweet aroma.Ā The tea shrubs are now in their tenth year, grown with care that's evolved over time.

What's changed:Ā in earlier seasons, the leaves grew unshaded in full sun, giving the tea a bright, lively finish. More recently, our producer introduced shading to soften that brightness — the result is a smoother tea with a silky mouthfeel and a more balanced umami and sweetness.

Flavour:Ā balanced umami and sweetness, smooth and easy to drink — the kind of tea you'll find yourself reaching for again and again.
