Organic spring sencha harvested between late April to early May. Steaming: Takeo-san steams the leaves for a slightly longer time than usual sencha, so we have classified this as a fukamushicha. Cultivars: Yabukita, zairai (grown from seed) blend Pesticide use: Takeo-san uses no pesticides in cultivation and have isolated their tea fields away from other agricultural activities to prevent contamination.
