繊細な香りは,この上もなくまろやかで上品な甘みとなります。煎茶の魅力を余すことなくつたえてくれるぜいたくなお茶です。口にひろがるほどよい余韻が身上です。

Delicate fragrance is a mellow sweetness and elegant no on this. Sencha tea is a luxury tells us without leaving the charm of. Lingering mouth is better to spread personal affairs.

First fruits of a wife living overseas.

The dry leaf and wet leaf are exactly what you would expect from a respectable sencha offering. Deep, emerald green color, pungent, riotous undergrowth aromas.

The cup is soothly pale in color, but quickly fades to yellow tones.

The liqueur is intensely flavorful, attacking the palate. Thick, coating vegetal bitterness and fresh pea sweetness.

I may have steeped this 5 or 10 seconds too long, but the flavor is still very pleasant.

Wow.

Shortened the steep time and all that powerful bitterness is gone.

I quaffed the gaiwan in two great swallows after an initial tentative sip and the flavor is just rolling around my mouth, tingling and sliding from here to there.

I’m so grateful for what I have learned through Steepster that has allowed me to treat each tea so much more precisely to the needs it has and to look past flavor profile to all the other ways that a leaf proves its value.

Harmony is a good name for this tea.
