"032 Tsuyuhikari Ei" is a tea with a rich umami flavor and a robust taste. It has a beautiful color and a strong aroma.
To complement this powerful sencha, we recommend pairing it with an elegant strawberry sandwich that combines tartness and sweetness with the richness of cream. The recipe has a good balance of umami, astringency, and bitterness, which can stand up to the sweet and sour flavors of the strawberry sandwich.
