Light Steamed Green Tea

light steamed green teaAsamushi Sencha The green teas in this category, known in Japanese as "asamushi-cha", or light steamed green teas, are steamed for a shorter period of time than your typical sencha. The period in which any green tea is steamed depends on various characteristics such as where it was grown, elevation, etc. Like deep steamed green tea, not all green teas are suitable for light steaming.

            Uji Shincha Kirameki

            Erleben Sie die seltene Freude des Uji Shincha Kirameki, exklusiv angeboten vom historischen Tsuen Tea Shop, Japans ältestem Teehändler, der seit über 860 Jahren entlang des malerischen Uji-Flusses ansässig ist. Dieser außergewöhnliche Tee ist ein einmaliges Phänomen während der Shincha-Saison, und sobald er ausverkauft ist, wird er erst mit der nächsten Ernte wieder verfügbar sein. Während Tsuen Tea nach der Shincha-Saison die Ujibashi San no Ma-Mischung anbietet, besitzt der Kirameki einen besonderen Charme, der ihn einzigartig begehrenswert macht.

Kirameki verkörpert das Beste des japanischen Grüntees und bietet einen flüchtigen Hauch der frischen Vitalität des Frühlings.

            Verpassen Sie nicht die Gelegenheit, dieses limitierte Getränk zu genießen. Sichern Sie sich heute noch Ihr 100-Gramm-Paket und tauchen Sie in die exquisiten Freuden der Shincha-Saison mit Uji Shincha Kirameki ein.

                We are delighted to offer the exquisite Uji Sencha "Aoi" from Tsuen Tea, the most historic teashop in Japan. Celebrated for its premium quality, this sencha is made from the finest first-harvest yabukita leaves, ranking just behind the renowned San no Ma in Tsuen's esteemed lineup.

                                            Loose leaf asamushi sencha will usually have large leaf particles and are suitable to be brewed in all types of Japanese green teapots, including those with ceramic "sesame" filters. When brewed, light steamed green tea tends to have a clear, light appearance, usually a bit on the yellowish side, subtle flavors, but it is often quite aromatic.  Asamushi can also be somewhat astringent depending on the individual tea. If you've never tried a light steamed green tea, we do have the best in what Japan has to offer, try one today!
