お茶を比較

This tea might change how you see Japanese tea. Highly herbal and aromatic, with a distinctive cinnamon-like spice that sets it apart from any conventional Japanese green tea. Koshun’s bold character once made the industry shy away from this cultivar — too different, too unusual. That’s exactly why we love it. While Koshun is typically known for its strong astringency, the terroir of Tenryu’s mountains brings out a rich, rounded sweetness that balances the herbal intensity beautifully. Crafted with sharp, needle-like leaves from a bud-weight focused harvest, where yield is sacrificed to concentrate flavour in every leaf. This has been our best-seller — and cold brew is where it truly shines. At our tasting events, this is the tea that stops people mid-sip. The cold brew unlocks a concentrated sweetness and umami that most people don’t expect from a green tea. We’ve watched it change people’s minds about Japanese tea, one cup at a time. If you’re curious about what Koshun can do as a black tea or an oolong , we carry those too — all from the same cultivar.
