A green tea with a nutty aftertaste. Asamushi. Little vegetal.
sencha Shohokuen "midori no kaori"
A top quality green tea of the first pluck from Uji.
The leaves are flat, silken, emerald-green needles that give a smooth taste and a subtle perfume tea (hence the name midori no kaori – green aroma). The leaves have been steamed at a low temperature.
