Light and mild single cultivar Sencha with a sweet cantaloupe note and a smooth finish. This tea does not show too much on the savory or bitter sides, but it does have quite the complexity, trading off between fruity and vegetable notes from sip to sip.
In the second steeping, this tea evolves, playing off more of these starchy or summer grass notes and less of the steamed vegetable flavors.

Meet the Farmer
This tea comes to us from Mr. Henta, an organic green tea farmer in Kirishima. Mr. Henta is quite knowledgeable about tea plant varieties, also called cultivars. Although his farm is on the smaller side, he grows 8 different types of tea plants. He can then combine these cultivars into different tea blends to get the perfect flavors.
About the Farm
This tea comes from the town of Kirishima, close to Kagoshima. The farm where this tea is grown is surrounded by dense forest and some small mountains, making it a very natural and beautiful setting to grow organic green tea.
How to Brew it
Add 5 grams of leaves to the teapot or strainer and then pour in 150ml to 200ml of water (160 degrees Fahrenheit) and let the tea brew for 1 minute. You can brew the leaves 2-3 more times with the same temperature for 20 seconds each
