#0187.S1 Chakouan: Ureshino Green Tea, Ochatama

A very interesting green tea. It looks like Chinese gunpowder tea in that the leaves are rolled up into little balls. The process occurs during the rolling of normal Japanese green tea, and only occasionally, making it quite rare to see them gathered into a single product. This particular one from our supplier Chakouan has a strong savory umami aroma that is similar to gyokuro.
