Overview
Best pick • solid other choice from Unknown origin
Pairing: shortbread, fresh fruit, or mild cheeses
Refined sharpness that is easy to drink. Subtle sweetness that leaves your mouth feeling refreshed. Prepare it with a tea strainer, like drip coffee. Use boiled water that has been slightly cooled to bring out the tea’s mild sweetness. Simple snacks that are very sweet, like small, sugar-coated sticks of fried dough (karinto) or fried and sugared sweet-potato strips (imokenpi). Prepare three teapots using the same tea leaves to fill a large carafe or jug that can be placed on the table for meals with family.
