JAS Organic Certified

Origin: Kagoshima, Japan.

*SMALL BATCH, LIMITED QUANTITY.

Nippon Cha's first harvest of 2024 “Organic Shin Cha-Yume Kaori” (Kabusecha). An organic Japanese Green Tea (sencha) harvested and grown in the Kagoshima Prefecture. For a minimum of one week, it is shaded to fully capture the rich characteristics of the spring season. This rare and high-quality Japanese tea is known for its organic leaves. It is highly praised for its verdant color, the scent of freshness, and taste of fruity notes. Although Shin Cha can be brewed with hot water, we highly recommend cold brew preparation in order to preserve its delicate flavors.
