Limited Sencha KOUBASHI
Limited Sencha KOUBASHI
Now available at a special price! 😸🍵💚
A very smooth, mildly sweet, and full-bodied premium Sencha. Features a Gyokuro-like umami and slightly floral notes in the finish. Grown, harvested, and processed by Susumu San at his newly established tea farm in Kawane, Shizuoka, in the heart of Japan. Thanks to the slightly longer steaming process, the tea leaves are finer and the infusion is particularly aromatic, without any bitterness or harsh flavors. Very soothing and pleasant to drink.

Hand-picked tea leaves
Susumu San checks every single basket of freshly harvested tea leaves for aroma and quality. The result is an intensely fragrant, highly aromatic green tea that has become his trademark in Japan.
Soft taste
The long steaming of the tea leaves ensures a balanced, smooth taste and a full-bodied aroma. The tea can of course be infused several times.
A passion for tea growing
Susumu San quit his job as a manager at a large tea company in 2023 to pursue his passion for growing & selecting green tea. He bought an abandoned tea farm in Kawane and now uses his knowledge & years of experience to produce his own tea. He does not use any pesticides, herbicides or chemical fertilizers.
Harvesting by hand is very laborious, but produces an exquisite green tea of the highest quality.
