Shelf-shaded for around two weeks, this Samidori kabusecha from Uji combines the sweetness and umami of a gyokuro with the body and structure of a sencha. Shading the tea plants from the sun causes them to produce fewer bitter-tasting catechins and instead make more sweet and savoury amino acids such as L-theanine.

Definitely recommended!
I love this. Following the brewing instructions on the bag, the tea is deep, sweet, full bodied, fresh. I will be buying more of this.

Marvelous!
I have gone back and forth between the umami notes of a gyokuro and the sweetness of a sencha. This kabusecha with its happy combination of both characteristics has become my go-to tea on weekday afternoons. Thanks to the team at Tezumi for introducing me to it!
