Ryōgōchi Sencha | Organic | 2023

両河内 煎茶

Unshaded mountain sencha from Mr and Mrs Iwasaki’s family tea gardens, grown by organic farming methods on a pristine, forest-covered mountainside in Ryōgōchi, Shizuoka.
A warm, buttery mouthfeel gradually transforms into refreshing sensations of lush mountain greenery backed by a moderate astringency – a witness of the unshaded nature of the leaves – and subtle, but characteristically sweet sakura mochi-like note for which the Shizu-7132 cultivar is particularly known.
