Sae Midori Organic Asamushi Sencha
Explore the exquisite subtleties of Kagoshima with our Organic Sae Midori Asamushi sencha, a prized green tea known for its light-steamed delicacy. Originating from the first flush of the Sae Midori clone, this tea is a rare find, introduced to our collection in 2017. It quickly became a favorite for its profound umami taste and rich aroma, distinguishing itself from more heavily steamed varieties.
The lighter steaming process of this Asamushi version enhances its aromatic qualities and flavor, offering a tea experience that is both nuanced and refreshing. Each sip delivers a vibrant burst of flavor, perfectly balancing invigoration and relaxation.
Packaged in nitrogen-flushed bags to maintain optimal freshness, each 100-gram package of this green tea is designed for connoisseurs who treasure exceptional quality.
Due to high demand and limited quantities, Organic Sae Midori Asamushi is often sold out by December each year. We encourage you to secure your portion of this exceptional tea soon, ensuring a special place in your tea repertoire.

Customer reviews
- Aaron TaylorFeb 10, 2023, 08:38Very delicious tea! Highly recommend!
- Harry HarrisDec 25, 2020, 00:18Love this one. Super fresh and flavorful, yet suitable for daily drinking. Highly recommended for its vibrant burst of umami.
- Jay K from TeaLife HKDec 3, 2018, 09:14Such a great tea. Very different across three infusions. Lots of umami and a lovely calming theanine effect. This may be my favorite so far of all of the steamed sencha I've had from O-Cha. I've never been able to buy tea of the quality I get from O-Cha in Japan: I'll be a customer for life!
- Arto TammenoksaDec 12, 2017, 20:39Excellent, mellow-tasting tea. Perfect for a day-to-day tea.
- Daniel MulfordNov 26, 2017, 05:05O-Cha is absolutely right: this tea is really delicious! Unique, satisfying nutty flavor.
- TimJun 20, 2017, 01:40Got through a few brews of this so far. Nice grassy notes and an interesting flavour shift over 3 brews. Very nice tea for the price.
- Dylan StevensonJun 4, 2017, 16:47Really unique sencha! Has a very strong fruity aroma (to my nose) and great flavors.
