The "Sakura Sencha", made by adding cherry blossom leaves during the hand-kneading process, is a perennial favorite flavor. It releases a sweet and refreshing aroma, and with the first sip, a gentle umami spreads across your palate. As time passes, a subtle astringency emerges, but its crisp and clean finish makes it an ideal companion for slightly longer walks. Enjoy an early taste of spring through this delightful tea.
