Senchaen vår er laget av ettertraktede tebusksorter inkludert Saemidori og Okumidori, og er en blanding av første og andre flush-høst fra økologiske gårder på Kyushu Island i sørlige Japan.
This is the first tea I've tried that's a blend of first and second flush harvests, and the balance is perfect. The Saemidori and Okumidori cultivars give it a sweetness that lasts even after it cools. Already added it to my weekly rotation.
Brewed this for the first time this afternoon and the blend of first and second flush harvests gives it a nice balance of grassy and slightly sweet notes. It steeps a lovely pale green and doesn't turn bitter even when I got distracted and left it a minute too long.
The Saemidori and Okumidori cultivars really shine here — there's a grassy freshness that lingers nicely without any bitterness. I brew it a bit cooler than usual and it's become my afternoon ritual.
