A fragrant oolong tea made from "Benifuuki," which has a floral aroma. Despite its rich taste with a solid astringency, it has a surprisingly refreshing finish.
It stands up well to the heavy sweetness of chestnut yokan, enhancing its flavor by providing a clean aftertaste. Its versatility in pairing with a wide range of flavors, from sweet to savory, is also appealing.
