2020 SILVER MEDAL at AVPA 3rd "Teas of the World" International Contest
"Steamed Green Teas" category
Origin: Japan - Kagoshima prefecture - Kyushu Island
Terroir : Kagoshima prefecture is renowned for its organic teas.
Species: Camelia sinensis sinensis
Cultivar: Asanoka
Harvest: Spring 2024 - first harvest
Production method: This tea undergoes a short steeping process, giving it lovely, long, needle-shaped leaves of light and dark jade color. It has been shaded for 10 days.
Special feature: Biodynamically grown spring tea.
History: Arnaud Dhenin met the producer, Mr. Hayashi, during his trip in April 2019, and was able to discuss his biodynamic growing methods. The plantation has been family-run for 3 generations, handed down from father to son.
Aromatic profile: A full-bodied tea, with a beautiful aromatic complexity between vegetal, iodized and cooked vegetable notes, typical of this early tea, all in subtlety. A rich, well-balanced spring tea with a sweet Umami flavor and a long, refreshing, smooth finish. A magnificent discovery.
- Flavor: Discreet umami - sweet with a long finish
- Texture: Round - slightly oily and powdery.
- Notes : Vegetal, mineral, marine (seawater), cooked spinach, cooked white fish, fresh return, long-lasting fresh fruit.
Our preparation advice: Prefer very soft spring water for Japanese teas (<40mg/l dry residue).
