Een van de eerst geoogste cultivars van het vroege voorjaar, deze biologische shincha heeft een diepe smaak met een verfijnde mineraliteit, gevormd door vruchtbare vulkanische bodems. De heldere, ondoorzichtige smaragdgroene infusie maakt het een favoriet onder theespecialisten en -liefhebbers.
The color alone is worth it — that opaque emerald-green liquor looks almost jewel-like in the cup, and the minerality gives it a clean, crisp finish that lasts. I brewed it a touch cooler than usual and the depth still came through beautifully.
That volcanic soil really comes through — there’s a stony, almost mineral sharpness under the sweet green that I’ve never tasted in a spring tea before. I brewed it slightly cooler than usual and the umami just unfolded. This is my new favorite way to start the morning.
The liquor is so thick and vividly green it looks almost like a smoothie in the cup, and that volcanic soil really gives it a clean, stony backbone under the grassy sweetness. I've been brewing it cooler to stretch out the umami and it's made my morning routine feel like a ritual.
