Single Origin Sencha from Kirishima

This is a single-estate, single-cultivar sencha green tea. Medium-steamed for a full-bodied taste with a rich seaweed aroma. It offers a classic flavor profile with an elegant, long-lasting aftertaste characteristic of high-quality sencha.

The tea is cultivated in gardens overlooking the Kirishima mountain range, which includes Mount Karakuni (exceeding 1,700 meters in altitude), Mount Shinmoe, Onami Pond, and Mount Takachiho. As its name suggests, Kirishima is a place where deep mists often linger. It has long been associated with tea production, known for nurturing fragrant and delicious teas.
