The tasting experience starts with notes of lighly cooked edamame with rich umami followed by notes of green fruit. Please make sure to also smell your cup after drinking. Origin: Kirishima, Kagoshima, Japan GPS: 31.7ºN 130.8ºE Grower: Hayashi Family Harvest: May 2025 Brewing Guidelines: Tea: 3g Water: 110ml @ 70°C Time: 45” (1st steep), 20" (2nd), 45" (3rd) THE ASANOKA CULTIVAR Asanoka（あさのか／朝の香) is a Japanese green tea cultivar developed in Kagoshima by crossing Japan's most abundant cultivar, Yabukita（やぶきた／藪北) with a Chinese cultivar. Released in 1996, its name translates roughly as "morning fragrance”. Asanoka is known for its bright, vivid liquor, smooth umami, and a slightly floral, sweet fragrance that stands out compared with the deeper, more vegetal profile of Yabukita. It thrives especially well in Kagoshima’s warmer climate and volcanic soils, making it a regional specialty. THE GROWER The Hayashi family are 5th generation farmers. Over 100 years ago, the first Hayashi brought tea seeds from Shizuoka Prefecture 静岡県 - the major green tea producer of Japan. Those trees are still alive now! And they make Zairai Fukamushi. In the 1950's, the Kirishima growers were pioneers in the use of pesticides. In the 1980's, they were the first farm in the region to go organic, and have remained so since. Having inherited a historical culture of tea cultivation and production, the current generation growers are nonetheless innovative and unorthodox. They experiment with non-traditional tea production, such as various single-cultivar sencha; matcha made of special samidori leaves; and green tea paste that tastes awesome in nitro.
