Overview

Recommended for: green tea drinkers who prefer deep-steamed tea with enhanced umami.

Tip: brew 3g leaf per 100ml at 50-60°C for 2-3 minutes to highlight umami and sweetness.

An early-budding cultivar, Shunmei boasts a vibrant colour and gentle taste: both on display in this deep-steamed sencha. The longer steaming time adds body and texture to the tea while softening the aroma and astringency
