Overview
Made from 60-year old seed-grown zairai plants, cultivated without the use of pesticides or chemical fertilisers, this light-steamed sencha is vibrant and zesty, with a slight minerality and lasting finish. The combination of natural farming, Uji native zairai, light-steaming, and a delicate firing (火入 - hiire) over charcoal gives this tea refreshing and classic taste. Producer: Chaen Morifuku Elevation: 150m Cultivar: 60 year-old Zairai Harvested: May 8, 2024
