Confronta i tè

From the hills of Ashikata comes this aromatic blend of traditional pan-fired tea and locally-grown lemongrass. The first infusion showcases the rich body of the kamairicha while the second brings out the refreshing aroma of lemongrass. It can also be enjoyed cold-brewed. The rare pan-fired processing of this kamairicha from Kumamoto gives it its savoury and nutty flavour. Though older than sencha, kamairicha makes up less than 0.5% of Japanese tea produced today. This traditional tea is smooth and easy drinking, with less astringency than most sencha.
