We're thrilled to bring you the exceptional Uji Sencha "Aoi" from Tsuen Tea, the oldest teashop in Japan. This exquisite sencha is crafted from first harvest yabukita leaves and ranks as Tsuen's second highest sencha, right behind their famous San no Ma. Lightly steamed to perfection, the "Aoi" offers a delightful, grassy aroma that captures the essence of spring. This is your chance to savor some of the finest Japanese green tea, direct from the picturesque banks of the Uji River.

Available in handy 100-gram packages—don't miss out on this stellar brew!

This green tea comes from Kirishima City, Kagoshima and is of course harvested from the first round of young leaves. Organic Sae Midori Kabusecha is grown for 14 to 20 days under 45% shade before harvest giving it taste characteristics of both sencha and gyokuro. This light steamed (asamushi) version comes from the Sae Midori clone and it is somewhat rare to be processed in kabusecha form.  A sweeter, less astringent taste than regular sencha, it has a lovely green color and is quite flavorful. Brew as you would for sencha. As with all of our loose leaf green teas, packaged in nitrogen flushed packaging.
