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.
\nSteaming: Asamushi, or lightly steamed. This results a leaf that is kept more intact than longer steaming, and therefore results in a clearer, liquid that extracts more slowly from the leaf for multiple steepings. This type of steaming is usually reserved for higher quality leaf.
\n
\nOrganic certification: Note to wholesale customers, this product is grown and processed to JAS organic certification. Please contact us for proper organic export documentation. Minimum purchase may be required.
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.

From the village of Yuikamatsuka (now simply Yui) in Shimada City, Shizuoka Prefecture, this is a deep-steamed sencha green tea with a deep green color and medium astringency. Near the Ooi River (Ooigawa), the area is blessed with a morning mist that is evidence of the temperature difference between night and day that produces great tea leaf.
Yamane-en is a family-operated tea shop based near Sugamo Station on the Yamanote Loop Line in Tokyo and run by tea master Michio Shiobara. With 40 years of experience in the Japanese tea industry behind him, Shiobara-san offers unique teas sourced from small villages throughout Japan as well as a number of tisanes popular in Japan for their health benefits.
The Morita family's quality sencha is a result of 10 generations of tea farming. Like their Premium Sencha, Suiren (but with smaller leaves), this Sayama region green tea is can be steeped to be very astringent with a touch of umami (savoriness) using hot water, or with a great balance between astringency (shibumi) and umami savoriness using warm water.
\n
While not quite what we would call a kabusecha, the leaves for Kakurei are shaded for about 10 days before harvest for extra umami flavor notes, and low astringency.
\n
THE NAME: KAKUREI 鶴齡
\n
\"The delicate crane\", kakurei, is the mythical crane, a divine animal with the longevity of a thousand years, and a symbol of good fortune. More commonly known by the first character, tsuru 鶴, the crane evokes the magical, majestic power of nature.
\n
\n
\nIngredients: Green tea
\n
\nHarvest: May
\n
\nCultivar: Blend (Yabukita, Fukumidori, Sayama Kaori, Sae Akari, and others)
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.

The Morita family's quality sencha is a result of 10 generations of tea farming. Like their Premium Sencha, Suiren (but with smaller leaves), this Sayama region green tea is can be steeped to be very astringent with a touch of umami (savoriness) using hot water, or with a great balance between astringency (shibumi) and umami savoriness using warm water.
\n
While not quite what we would call a kabusecha, the leaves for Kakurei are shaded for about 10 days before harvest for extra umami flavor notes, and low astringency.
\n
THE NAME: KAKUREI 鶴齡
\n
\"The delicate crane\", kakurei, is the mythical crane, a divine animal with the longevity of a thousand years, and a symbol of good fortune. More commonly known by the first character, tsuru 鶴, the crane evokes the magical, majestic power of nature.
\n
\n
\nIngredients: Green tea
\n
\nHarvest: May
\n
\nCultivar: Blend (Yabukita, Fukumidori, Sayama Kaori, Sae Akari, and others)
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.
