Yutaka Midori có nghĩa là "xanh đậm" và giống trà này phát triển tốt ở vùng khí hậu ấm hơn, độ cao thấp. Lô vi mô năm nay sống động, tươi sáng với vị umami dồi dào cân bằng cùng vị ngọt.
That first brew hit me with a wave of sweet umami that lingered nicely on the tongue, exactly as the “rich green” name suggests. It’s lively and bright without any bitterness, even when I let it steep a touch too long. I’ve already ordered a second bag.
The color is this gorgeous, lively green the moment it hits the water, and the sweetness balances the umami perfectly. I usually drink gyokuro, but this lower-elevation shincha has a brightness that feels more approachable for everyday sipping. Finished the bag way faster than I expected.
This year’s batch is so lively and bright, it practically tastes like early summer in a cup. That rich green character really delivers on the “umami balanced with sweetness” promise, and the finish is clean without any bitterness.
