Kabusecha - Shade Grown Green Tea from Yame, Japan

Do you want to enjoy a smooth and complex Japanese green tea that will delight your taste buds? Do you want to avoid the high caffeine and bitter flavors that are common in regular black teas? Do you want to enjoy the health benefits of green tea without any additives? Then you need our Kabusecha - Shade Grown Green Tea from Yame, Japan! Our kabusecha is not like any other green tea you've tried before. It's made from 100% green tea leaves grown in Yame, one of the most renowned tea regions in Japan. Yame is known for its foggy climate, pure water and fertile soil that produce high-quality tea. Our kabusecha is also processed with care and expertise by tea masters who shade the tea plants with fine mesh nets (kabuse) for about a week before harvesting. This reduces the sunlight exposure and increases the levels of chlorophyll and amino acids in the tea leaves. This results in a fuller body, a bolder umami and a higher content of antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and L-theanine. Our kabusecha is perfect for enjoying as a premium green tea that can satisfy your palate and your mind. You can brew it with hot water (about 175°F) and steep it for about one minute. You can also re-steep the same leaves several times, each time revealing a different nuance of flavor and aroma. Or you can try it cold as a cold brew or ice brew extraction. Our kabusecha has a bright green color, a grassy fragrance and a smooth taste that's not too bitter or sweet.
