Winner of the Platinum Award at the 2021 Nihoncha Awards in Tokyo, this zairai variety of kamairicha (pan-fired green tea instead of steamed green tea) has been withered slightly to give it a complex floral aroma.
About Zairai and tea plant cultivars: Literally "Coming from existing" plants, the term "zairai" refers to the "original" tea plants in Japan...in other words before the modern methods of identifying and propagating cultivars was known. Tea plants that were grown from the seeds of tea plants that were also grown from seeds all the way back to the first tea plants planted from seeds a millennium ago. The modern cultivar refers to plants that has been cultivated to have specific DNA, and are propagated using cuttings to preserve that DNA and the characteristics of that DNA (i.e. flavor). In Japanese, tea professionals use the term hinshu 品種, literally "type"; with the exception of the zairai hinshu, the term is synonymous with the English term "cultivar".
