PREMIUM MIDORI HASHIRI SHINCHA

Hashiri Shincha is the very first tea of the year — the buds that herald the arrival of spring in Japan. Rich in nutrients and exceptional in flavour.

A top-of-the-range Japanese sencha. It is made from Hashiri Shincha, the very first spring buds, which are packed with nutrients accumulated in the roots during the long, cold winter. The result is a tea with a particularly strong and complex flavour. The theanine content of the buds is at its highest, giving the tea a deep, mellow and savoury flavour reminiscent of a light sea breeze.

ASA-MUSHI, a lightly steamed green tea.

Brewing: 75°C — 1 minute. Use filtered or spring water to preserve the full subtlety of the flavours.
