Imari-cha grown in the heart of mountains in Imari, Saga Prefecture in Kyushu. Produced as tamaryokucha, a type of green tea that is processed like sencha but omits the last rolling step that straightens the leaves. This produces a leaf that is slightly curled. Well-balanced amami (sweetness) and shibumi (astringency), along with a fresh aroma makes it a great sencha for daily drink.
