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
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.
- 1st steeping - Tea: 3 grams. Time: 60 seconds. Water: 60C/140F, 150 ml.
- 2nd steeping - Time: 10-20 seconds. Water: 80-90C/180-195F, 200 ml (about 1 cup).
- 3rd steeping - Increase time to 30-60 seconds or to desired strength.
