Uji No Sato is a textbook example of the lean and elegant sencha found throughout Uji—the tea culture capital of Japan. The minimal processing post harvest results in a transparent profile that allows the legendary terroir to come through fully—a light and silky body, complex floral and saline aromatics, and a soft, pleasing astringency. Uji No Sato represents a remarkable value, presenting a complete tea to be savored at an every day drinking price.
