Steeping recommendation

\n

We recommend the warm water steeping method for this Yakushima Shincha. Steep it in a small amount at low temperature to enjoy the umami flavors more distinctly, then again at higher temperatures to release more flavors.

An extra early harvest from the popular tea farm on Yakushima Island, Kagoshima, Japan, this blend by farmer Watanabe-san is an exquisite taste of umami as a lightly steamed sencha. Package may differ from photo.

The Nishide Tea Factory is managed by husband and wife team, Takashi and Atsuko Nishide and their family. Established over 140 years ago, the Nishide family buys aracha tea (unrefined leaves) from the tea farms of Kyoto and surrounding prefectures, and refines them further to craft high quality tea leaves that are uniform in color and shape, and of course excellent in flavor.

Real wasabi, grated for easy use. Kameya Food's farm direct grated wasabi is perfect for a wide array of Japanese foods. Not familiar with wasabi? It's an essential condiment used to accompany traditional Japanese cuisine such as sushi, sashimi and soba (buckwheat noodles). We recommend this not only for the traditional dishes, but also for grilled fish, and even for Western foods like rib steak and sausages. Please give it a try, instead of what you may normally use like mustard or horseradish. Wasabi can also be used in dipping sauces, salad dressings, the options are countless! Just remember that it creates a sharp, tingly (but temporary) sensation of heat in your nose with its pungent aroma, so do be careful! This wasabi comes from Shizuoka Prefecture, the leading producer of Japanese tea but also famous for their delicious wasabi.

Kuchikiri

\n

手前茶の 口切にさへ ゆふべ哉
temae cha no kuchikiri ni sae yūbe kana
The tea before me, I break the seal, in the evening

\n

This poem was written in 1806 by one of Japan's most prominent haiku poets, Kobayashi Issa 小林一茶. The term kuchikiri 口切 refers to the unsealing of tea in the winter. After the spring harvest, traditionally (particularly prior to modern refrigeration) tea producers would would seal gyokuro (as well as tencha, the leaf used for matcha) in a jar (tsubo 壷) and store in a cool place (underground or in a cave). The storage during the hot summer and into winter allows the leaf to age, allowing any remaining bitter-tasting catechin to degrade, rounding out the flavor. The tradition has become an event and ceremony in Kyoto and other regions.

\n

The term is also used by poets as a seasonal indicator, adding an additional layer of hidden meaning to the haiku. I'm not sure my translation is entirely accurate...I couldn't figure out the significance of the \"ni sae\" and the nuance of the \"kana\"...if you are a student of Japanese poetry, please feel free correct me in the comments!

\n

This tea has followed this process, so we are naming it \"kuchikiri\" in honor of both the tradition and one of my favorite poets, Kobayashi Issa.

\n

Organic cultivation

\n

What is also unique is the richness of the umami flavor despite the fact that the leaves were grown organically. Non-organic cultivation allows farmers to infuse their tea plants with nutrients, creating an intensely rich umami flavor--a flavor that also attracts pests, and requires pesticides to deal with the pests. Growing organically, most examples of organic gyokuro can't attain a high level of umami due to the need to avoid leaf damage from insects.

\n

\"Kuchikiri\" is able to achieve a smooth, rich gyokuro flavor due to the skill of the farmer who grew the leaves for \"Kuchikiri\", and the refiner who both aged the leaf over the last 9 months as well as green-roasting just enough to enhance the sweetness of the leaf.

\n

Saemidori Cultivar

\n

Finally, \"Kuchikiri\" benefits from being a single cultivar, utilizing the naturally umami-rich and bright green saemidori cultivar.

Kuchikiri

\n

手前茶の 口切にさへ ゆふべ哉
temae cha no kuchikiri ni sae yūbe kana
The tea before me, I break the seal, in the evening

\n

This poem was written in 1806 by one of Japan's most prominent haiku poets, Kobayashi Issa 小林一茶. The term kuchikiri 口切 refers to the unsealing of tea in the winter. After the spring harvest, traditionally (particularly prior to modern refrigeration) tea producers would would seal gyokuro (as well as tencha, the leaf used for matcha) in a jar (tsubo 壷) and store in a cool place (underground or in a cave). The storage during the hot summer and into winter allows the leaf to age, allowing any remaining bitter-tasting catechin to degrade, rounding out the flavor. The tradition has become an event and ceremony in Kyoto and other regions.

\n

The term is also used by poets as a seasonal indicator, adding an additional layer of hidden meaning to the haiku. I'm not sure my translation is entirely accurate...I couldn't figure out the significance of the \"ni sae\" and the nuance of the \"kana\"...if you are a student of Japanese poetry, please feel free correct me in the comments!

\n

This tea has followed this process, so we are naming it \"kuchikiri\" in honor of both the tradition and one of my favorite poets, Kobayashi Issa.

\n

Organic cultivation

\n

What is also unique is the richness of the umami flavor despite the fact that the leaves were grown organically. Non-organic cultivation allows farmers to infuse their tea plants with nutrients, creating an intensely rich umami flavor--a flavor that also attracts pests, and requires pesticides to deal with the pests. Growing organically, most examples of organic gyokuro can't attain a high level of umami due to the need to avoid leaf damage from insects.

\n

\"Kuchikiri\" is able to achieve a smooth, rich gyokuro flavor due to the skill of the farmer who grew the leaves for \"Kuchikiri\", and the refiner who both aged the leaf over the last 9 months as well as green-roasting just enough to enhance the sweetness of the leaf.

\n

Saemidori Cultivar

\n

Finally, \"Kuchikiri\" benefits from being a single cultivar, utilizing the naturally umami-rich and bright green saemidori cultivar.

About the Morita Family

\n

The Morita family are 10th generation tea farmers, and the eldest son (pictured above) has just decided to become the 11th generation.

\n

Located in the Sayama region of Saitama Prefecture, the Morita family was affected by the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant failure in March, 2011. While their tea is tested to be radiation free (test results available), Sayama-cha is being avoided by vendors. We hope to help out the Morita family by connecting them with tea lovers around the world.

\n

On behalf of the Morita family, we greatly appreciate your understanding and trust that the tea provided here is tested and found to be completely safe.

Steeping Notes

\n

Consider also cold steeping or ice steeping (see Steeping Techniques). The main thing to note is that lower water temperatures create a sweeter flavor profile while hotter temperatures create a more bitter, astringent profile. More water or less tea will reduce the strength of the tea.

This organic sencha Ranryu is made from a rare cultivar called Inzatsu #131, born from the Indian Assam Manipuri #5 cultivar and an unknown father. This cultivar is characterized by its unique floral fragrance, as it contains the aromatic component methyl anthranilate (reminiscent of roses and jasmine). That is how this intriguing tea from Tarui Tea Farm received the name \"Ranryu\", which translates to \"Orchid Dragon\".

Steeping Notes

\n

Consider also cold steeping or ice steeping (see Steeping Techniques). The main thing to note is that lower water temperatures create a sweeter flavor profile while hotter temperatures create a more bitter, astringent profile. More water or less tea will reduce the strength of the tea.

About the Tea Farmer
\n

\n

Yoshimitsu Masuda spent the first part of his adult life working in a major farming cooperative where he learned firsthand about the danger of food additives and pesticides. Returning to the family tea farm in 1992 to learn tea making from his father and fellow tea farmers in Shimada, Shizuoka, he was deeply surprised at the amount of pesticides used in tea farming.

\n

Switching to organic farming was not an easy task; insects and disease plagued the first field he was given charge of, crop yield and leaf quality dropped, and he faced criticism from both family and other tea professionals. But he felt it was important to create tea that was safe for his own family to drink first. (Read more about Masuda-san's story here.)

\n

Today, built upon 25+ years of organic farming experience, Masuda-san produces tea that he is proud to call both safe and delicious and is passing his tea-making skills on to his children.

A very interesting green tea. It looks like Chinese gunpowder tea in that the leaves are rolled up into little balls. The process occurs during the rolling of normal Japanese green tea, and only occasionally, making it quite rare to see them gathered into a single product.

This particular one from our supplier Chakouan has a strong savory umami aroma that is similar to gyokuro.

A very interesting green tea. It looks like Chinese gunpowder tea in that the leaves are rolled up into little balls. The process occurs during the rolling of normal Japanese green tea, and only occasionally, making it quite rare to see them gathered into a single product.

\n

This particular one from our supplier Chakouan has a strong savory umami aroma that is similar to gyokuro.

Tencha farmer from Wazuka, Kyoto—Hori-san and her daughter (unfortunately, our friend, daughter Megumi, passed away in 2023)—bring you a small batch (only 1-2 dozen kg harvested) matcha made from a new and still rare cultivar called Asanoka.

\n

The Asanoka cultivar was registered in Kagoshima in 1996, and was made from a cross between the common Yabukita cultivar and a Chinese cultivar registered as Hiramizu #1. As a matcha, it will be refreshing with strong umami flavor and sweet notes.

Yunomi Evaluation - 70/100

\n

Based on our own tasting, this product has the following profile - created with 3g of matcha, 100 ml of water, 70C degrees. However, tastings are not conducted side by side, and there are many factors that may affect the quality you yourself taste: age of the matcha after grinding, different water profiles, ambient temperature, preparation styles, etc. Please use this profile as a simple reference.

About the Garden

\n

 

\n

The 4th generation Kiroku Tea Garden is in the heart of Wazuka, Kyoto prefecture, an area whose mountain tea fields and undulating terraced slopes thick with fog make perfect tea-growing conditions. Founded nearly 100 years ago, before cars and farming machinery were available, their mountain fields were cleared by hand by the Great-Grandfather of sisters Megumi and Ui Hori.

\n

Today, with their mother, the sisters find themselves in the unusual position of being a farm entirely owned and operated by women. After the passing of their father, the three women took over the running of the farm to continue their family’s legacy, one that began in these fields all those years ago. In the male-dominated tea agriculture and production industry, their efforts are a challenge to the status quo. At Yunomi, we are proud to support their dedication. To learn more about the Kiroku Tea Garden, please check out our interview with Ui Hori (posted April 2021)

Tencha farmer from Wazuka, Kyoto—Hori-san and her daughter (unfortunately, our friend, daughter Megumi, passed away in 2023)—bring you a small batch (only 1-2 dozen kg harvested) matcha made from a new and still rare cultivar called Asanoka.

\n

The Asanoka cultivar was registered in Kagoshima in 1996, and was made from a cross between the common Yabukita cultivar and a Chinese cultivar registered as Hiramizu #1. As a matcha, it will be refreshing with strong umami flavor and sweet notes.

Yunomi Evaluation - 70/100

\n

Based on our own tasting, this product has the following profile - created with 3g of matcha, 100 ml of water, 70C degrees. However, tastings are not conducted side by side, and there are many factors that may affect the quality you yourself taste: age of the matcha after grinding, different water profiles, ambient temperature, preparation styles, etc. Please use this profile as a simple reference.

About the Garden

\n

 

\n

The 4th generation Kiroku Tea Garden is in the heart of Wazuka, Kyoto prefecture, an area whose mountain tea fields and undulating terraced slopes thick with fog make perfect tea-growing conditions. Founded nearly 100 years ago, before cars and farming machinery were available, their mountain fields were cleared by hand by the Great-Grandfather of sisters Megumi and Ui Hori.

\n

Today, with their mother, the sisters find themselves in the unusual position of being a farm entirely owned and operated by women. After the passing of their father, the three women took over the running of the farm to continue their family’s legacy, one that began in these fields all those years ago. In the male-dominated tea agriculture and production industry, their efforts are a challenge to the status quo. At Yunomi, we are proud to support their dedication. To learn more about the Kiroku Tea Garden, please check out our interview with Ui Hori (posted April 2021)

Yunomi Evaluation - 80/100

\n

Based on our own tasting, this product has the following profile. However, tastings are not conducted side by side, and different water, ambient temperature, etc. may affect the outcome. Please use this profile as a simple guide.

\n\n

\nProduct Details
\n

\n\n

How much does 30 grams of matcha make?

\n

It depends on how thick you make your matcha and how much you make, but if you use 1 gram (about 1/3 teaspoon) to make a 100 ml cup, that's 30 cups of matcha!

\n

Did you know matcha is best when it's freshly ground?

\n

How good your matcha is depends of course on the quality of the underlying leaf. However, producers buy many different production lots from many different farmers. Their skill, the reason why we call them master blenders, is in blending the leaves prior to grinding to create a specific profile in terms of powder color, powder aroma, grain size, matcha color, and most importantly the flavor of the matcha.

\n

While the harvest season can make a big difference in quality since larger autumn leaves will be more bitter and more difficult to grind into fine powder, the harvest year is not necessarily important particularly right after the spring harvest (May - August). At this time, leaves may actually be too fresh to make good matcha--their flavor may create matcha that is very strong in umami but also too bitter. Meanwhile, leaves that have aged over the past year will be more mellow and perfect for balancing the fresh leaf.

\n

Matcha however does get old quickly after grinding. In 6 months after grinding the color will fade, and the aroma will disappear. After 9 months, the strength of the flavor will also fade. As a result, higher grade matcha tends to have a best by date of 3-6 months, while lower grade matcha has a best by date of 12 months in Japan. Western brands often have a 18-24 month shelf life though.

\n

As a rule, we do our best to ensure that the Yunomi branded matcha is never older the 6 months from grinding, and that matcha other brands are never older than 6 months from procurement.

\nProduct Details
\n

\n\n

How much does 30 grams of matcha make?

\n

It depends on how thick you make your matcha and how much you make, but if you use 1 gram (about 1/3 teaspoon) to make a 100 ml cup, that's 30 cups of matcha!

\n

Did you know matcha is best when it's freshly ground?

\n

How good your matcha is depends of course on the quality of the underlying leaf. However, producers buy many different production lots from many different farmers. Their skill, the reason why we call them master blenders, is in blending the leaves prior to grinding to create a specific profile in terms of powder color, powder aroma, grain size, matcha color, and most importantly the flavor of the matcha.

\n

While the harvest season can make a big difference in quality since larger autumn leaves will be more bitter and more difficult to grind into fine powder, the harvest year is not necessarily important particularly right after the spring harvest (May - August). At this time, leaves may actually be too fresh to make good matcha--their flavor may create matcha that is very strong in umami but also too bitter. Meanwhile, leaves that have aged over the past year will be more mellow and perfect for balancing the fresh leaf.

\n

Matcha however does get old quickly after grinding. In 6 months after grinding the color will fade, and the aroma will disappear. After 9 months, the strength of the flavor will also fade. As a result, higher grade matcha tends to have a best by date of 3-6 months, while lower grade matcha has a best by date of 12 months in Japan. Western brands often have a 18-24 month shelf life though.

\n

As a rule, we do our best to ensure that the Yunomi branded matcha is never older the 6 months from grinding, and that matcha other brands are never older than 6 months from procurement.

Shogyokuen Tea Factory's Tsuki no Hikari, is a kabusecha, but as sweet as many gyokuro at major tea brands. In the past, Kabusecha was called “hot water Gyokuro” - meant for steeping at hotter temperatures similar to sencha but still providing a rich umami flavor.

\n

Steeping notes

\n

Tea: 5 grams, Time: 2 minutes, Water: 60C/140F degrees, 100 ml (or about 1/2 cup).

\n

This formula is meant to extract an umami rich tea. Subsequent steeps may be enjoyed as a sencha, steeping a full cup for 30 seconds at 70C/158F degrees.

Shogyokuen Tea Factory's Tsuki no Hikari, is a kabusecha, but as sweet as many gyokuro at major tea brands. In the past, Kabusecha was called “hot water Gyokuro” - meant for steeping at hotter temperatures similar to sencha but still providing a rich umami flavor.

\n

Steeping notes

\n

Tea: 5 grams, Time: 2 minutes, Water: 60C/140F degrees, 100 ml (or about 1/2 cup).

\n

This formula is meant to extract an umami rich tea. Subsequent steeps may be enjoyed as a sencha, steeping a full cup for 30 seconds at 70C/158F degrees.

Spring sencha harvested between late April to early May. 

\n

Steaming: Takeo-san steams the leaves for a slightly longer time than usual sencha, so we have classified this as a fukamushicha.

\n

Cultivars: Yabukita, zairai (grown from seed) blend

\n

Pesticide use: Takeo-san uses no pesticides in cultivation and have isolated their tea fields away from other agricultural activities to prevent contamination. Of the some 20k tea farmers in Japan the Takeo family is one of a few family-operated artisan tea farms who have had their tea certified. 

\n

JAS (Japan Agricultural Standard) certification mark

\n

\n\"\"Flavor

\n

Bright and refreshingly green sencha with very mild astringency that adds freshness to the flavor. It is light bodied and easy to drink.

Spring sencha harvested between late April to early May. 

\n

Steaming: Takeo-san steams the leaves for a slightly longer time than usual sencha, so we have classified this as a fukamushicha.

\n

Cultivars: Yabukita, zairai (grown from seed) blend

\n

Pesticide use: Takeo-san uses no pesticides in cultivation and have isolated their tea fields away from other agricultural activities to prevent contamination. Of the some 20k tea farmers in Japan the Takeo family is one of a few family-operated artisan tea farms who have had their tea certified. 

\n

JAS (Japan Agricultural Standard) certification mark

\n

\n\"\"Flavor

\n

Bright and refreshingly green sencha with very mild astringency that adds freshness to the flavor. It is light bodied and easy to drink.

Perhaps you are familiar with a hojicha but exactly is a kuki hojicha? A kukicha (“twig tea”), or stem tea, is made with parts of the tea plant that is usually not used for making the most common type of green tea such as sencha. So, this tea from Yokota Tea Garden is a roasted stem tea, and specifically with stems/stalks coming from their summer harvest in Sayama, Saitama prefecture. Lightly smoky and earthy in flavor, and low in caffeine due to the summer harvest and roasting process. Many of our customers have also commented on the gentle sweetness and nuttiness of this kuki hojicha so if you prefer your hojichas to have a subtle sweetness, this one may be for you!

Perhaps you are familiar with a hojicha but exactly is a kuki hojicha? A kukicha (“twig tea”), or stem tea, is made with parts of the tea plant that is usually not used for making the most common type of green tea such as sencha. So, this tea from Yokota Tea Garden is a roasted stem tea, and specifically with stems/stalks coming from their summer harvest in Sayama, Saitama prefecture. Lightly smoky and earthy in flavor, and low in caffeine due to the summer harvest and roasting process. Many of our customers have also commented on the gentle sweetness and nuttiness of this kuki hojicha so if you prefer your hojichas to have a subtle sweetness, this one may be for you!

About the Nakai family

\n

Since the late 17th century, the Nakai family has been cultivating tea in the village of Wazuka, Kyoto. The 6th tea master, Masao Nakai, began organic and non-pesticide cultivation in 1980, a time when few people were concerned about producing organically. Aiming to create an agricultural system that coexists with the natural environment of the beautiful mountains, Nakai-san was a pioneer in the tea industry of Kyoto. His son, 7th tea master Michio Nakai, continues this tradition today.

The saemidori kabusecha (lightly shaded green tea) grown and processed by the Shimizu family of Suizawa, Mie Prefecture. This saemidori kabusecha has many fans for its bright green color and rich flavor. 

\n

Kabusechas are a fantastic in-between tea (i.e., in-between sencha and gyokuro) and you wouldn't want to miss out on trying one from the Marushige Shimizu Tea Farm, that is their specialization. 

\n

A note about the cultivar: The Saemidori cultivar (which means \"clear green\") was first cross-bred in 1969 between asatsuyu, the \"natural gyokuro\" for its rich umami flavors, and the popular yabukita which balances flavor with great crop yield and resistance to disease.This cultivar is becoming more familiar and liked by Japanese tea lovers. Grown as a kabusecha, you'll find a rich and balanced umami taste, grassy with a citrus-like astringency.

Steeping Notes

\n

1st steeping

\n

Tea: 5 grams or 1 teaspoon. Time: 2 minutes. Water: 50˚C/140˚F, 100 ml.

\n

Use warm water: 50˚C/140˚F, with just enough water to cover the leaves used (5g of leaves or 1 teaspoon, about 120 ml of water). Steep for 2 minutes or until the leaves have soaked up the water. Pour a little at a time into tasting cups, alternating between cups to even out the flavor (thicker flavor will sit at the bottom of your pot)

\n

2nd steeping

\n

Tea: same. Time: 10-20 seconds. Water: 80˚C/176˚F, 180-240 ml (about 1 cup).

\n

3rd steeping

\n

The saemidori kabusecha (lightly shaded green tea) grown and processed by the Shimizu family of Suizawa, Mie Prefecture. This saemidori kabusecha has many fans for its bright green color and rich flavor. 

\n

Kabusechas are a fantastic in-between tea (i.e., in-between sencha and gyokuro) and you wouldn't want to miss out on trying one from the Marushige Shimizu Tea Farm, that is their specialization. 

\n

A note about the cultivar: The Saemidori cultivar (which means \"clear green\") was first cross-bred in 1969 between asatsuyu, the \"natural gyokuro\" for its rich umami flavors, and the popular yabukita which balances flavor with great crop yield and resistance to disease.This cultivar is becoming more familiar and liked by Japanese tea lovers. Grown as a kabusecha, you'll find a rich and balanced umami taste, grassy with a citrus-like astringency.

Steeping Notes

\n

1st steeping

\n

Tea: 5 grams or 1 teaspoon. Time: 2 minutes. Water: 50˚C/140˚F, 100 ml.

\n

Use warm water: 50˚C/140˚F, with just enough water to cover the leaves used (5g of leaves or 1 teaspoon, about 120 ml of water). Steep for 2 minutes or until the leaves have soaked up the water. Pour a little at a time into tasting cups, alternating between cups to even out the flavor (thicker flavor will sit at the bottom of your pot)

\n

2nd steeping

\n

Tea: same. Time: 10-20 seconds. Water: 80˚C/176˚F, 180-240 ml (about 1 cup).

\n

3rd steeping

\n

Increase time to 30-45 seconds or to desired strength.

\n

**Consider also cold steeping or ice steeping (see Steeping Techniques).
