Overview
Pairing: sushi, steamed vegetables, or citrusy salads
A balance of light umami and sharpness. A combination of sencha’s complex properties—sweetness, umami, sharpness, bitterness, and fragrance. When you’re still feeling sleepy in the morning. Prepare it with boiling water, and let the fragrance of young tea leaves steadily wake you up. Sweet confections in which you can detect the flavour of eggs, like sponge cake or custard puddings. When letting children try Japanese tea. With the many different flavours the tea possesses, it’s fun to hear what children think of it.
