Organic Hikari Sencha

240,00 kr

This organic sencha from Kirishima is a lightly steamed, first-harvest tea produced by the Henta family from the Tsuyuhikari cultivar. The tea is grown without shading, allowing the leaves to develop under direct sunlight before harvest.

The tea farm is located at the foot of Mount Kirishima in Kirishima, Kagoshima. Founded in 1968 by Mr. Satoru Henta, the farm is now owned and operated by his son, Mr. Koichi Henta and now also his son Tatsunori. Specializing in organic tea cultivation, Mr. Koichi Henta carefully oversees production through small hand adjustments and close attention to daily weather, temperature, and changes in the surrounding ecosystem. He also uses homemade compost produced on the farm.

In the cup: a fresh green aroma with floral notes of blackcurrant. The taste is clean and vibrant, with a balanced sweetness and a light, refreshing finish.
