The tea leaves have subsequently undergone a careful indoor oxidation process, allowing the leaves to slowly wither (ich\u014d) and dry. Mr Yamazaki adjusts the duration of this crucial processing step each year depending on climate conditions and other critical factors, one of the reasons why each vintage of his black teas develop such distinct characters of their own.<\/p>\n<p>However, the oxidation processes are generally allowed to last significantly longer compared to typical styles of Japanese black tea production. Mr Yamazaki&#8217;s Kamo K\u014dcha accordingly develop unique expressions in taste and aroma profile which in the case of this 2019-vintage suggest fine notes of hinoki wood, dried fig, and sweet plums \u2013 generally speaking, a somewhat deeper register of flavours compared to <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.io-te.dk\/en\/vare\/kamo-kocha-black-tea-2020\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kamo K\u014dcha 2020.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<hr>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: left;\">Tea trees | <span lang=\"ja\">\u8336\u6a39<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><strong>Cultivar:<\/strong> <em>Zairai <\/em>(local variant of the tea tree grown from seed)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Age:<\/strong> unknown<\/p>\n<p><strong>Elevation<\/strong>: 200 masl<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fertilisation:<\/strong> none<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cultivation method:<\/strong> natural farming (read more about organic and natural farming <a href=\"https:\/\/www.io-te.dk\/en\/organic-and-natural-farming\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">here<\/span><\/a>)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Harvest:<\/strong> June 2019<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: left;\">Producer | <span lang=\"ja\">\u751f\u7523\u8005<\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Tokuya Yamazaki at Kamo Shizen N\u014den <span lang=\"ja\">\u52a0\u8302\u81ea\u7136\u8fb2\u5712<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: left;\">Origin | <span lang=\"ja\">\u7523\u5730<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Kamo in Kyoto, Japan<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<h4><span lang=\"ja\">\u52a0\u8302 \u7d05\u8336<\/span><\/h4>\n<h5>Japanese black tea from <em>Zairai<\/em> tea trees grown by natural farming methods and harvested in early June 2019 at Kamo Shizen N\u014den in Kamo, Kyoto.<\/h5>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":10383,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[106,204,210,191],"product_tag":[133],"class_list":{"0":"post-10525","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-black-tea","7":"product_cat-kamo-shizen-noen-kyoto","8":"product_cat-natural-farming","9":"product_cat-tea","10":"product_tag-black-tea","12":"first","13":"outofstock","14":"taxable","15":"shipping-taxable","16":"purchasable","17":"product-type-simple"},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.io-te.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/10525","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.io-te.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.io-te.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.io-te.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10525"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.io-te.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10383"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.io-te.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10525"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.io-te.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=10525"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.io-te.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=10525"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.io-te.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=10525"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
