This delicious organic sencha from the Chiran area (Kagoshima) is picked between June and July by Orita-en, one of the first tea growers to switch to organic farming in Japan. This high-grade green tea can be brewed very quickly, in just 40 seconds. Because of its low caffeine levels, it can be enjoyed at any time during the day.

It's very high levels of theanine and catechines guarantee high contents of amino acids and antioxidants, but also a very nice feeling of relaxation. Although its bitterness is obvious, its lightly roasted fragrance and low-key umami make this green tea the perfect match for a well-deserved break with some sweets.

"The Philosophy of Tea is not mere aestheticism ... for it expresses conjointly with ethics and religion our whole point of view about man and nature. It is hygiene, for it enforces cleanliness; it is economics, for it shows comfort in simplicity rather than in the complex and costly; it is moral geometry, inasmuch as it defines our sense of proportion to the universe." - Kakuzo Okakura

Fantastic

Not an inexpensive tea by any means, but it delivers layers of depth and flavor and can be brewed 5-6 times. Really excellent.

I like the taste but my main gripe is that after the second infusion, the taste becomes very noticeably weak. A high quality green tea can usually get 4 or 5 infusions. For this reason, I don't think the quality justifies $18 for 50 grams. There's plenty of green tea you can find that is better and cheaper.

Very good tea! It has a wonderful aroma. The packaging includes a slip of paper that gives you information about its origin and producer as well as how to prepare it properly.
