Overview
Tip: start at ~95°C, then adjust down 3–5°C if it turns sharp.
Ryokuin (緑陰 - Verdant Shade) is a classic Uji sencha: lightly-steamed with beautiful long green, glossy needle-shaped leaves. This tea brews up into an umami rich yet wonderfully balanced tea, showcasing the top qualities of Ujicha.
