Grown in the rolling hills of Wazuka, this Okumidori sencha captures the essence of Kyoto's famed terroir.
Asanagi is grown unshaded, which is uncharacteristic for Uji tea, but allows for the deep, natural umami of Wazuka sencha to shine through.

You should get this!
This sencha has excellent umami and the leaves hold up well for a third and very long steep that still yields good flavor.

Remarkable!
I really enjoy Kyoto style sencha, and this is a great daily driver for that. Great in the cup, lovely smell, bright with balanced umami
