Sencha Loose Leaf Tea Single Origin: Chiran

Farmers looking to expand beyond the established tea center of Shizuoka brought their cultivation secrets to Chiran, in the Kagoshima region of the southern island of Kyushu. Yamamotoyama blends only spring's finest first flush Yabukita and Yutakamidori varietals to create a deep emerald green full-bodied tea.

Flavor Description: A bright aroma, with balanced sweetness and mellow astringency, perfect for a relaxing break from work or study.
