This tea has a mild astringency and a rich, aromatic flavor, making it a favorite among tea farmers.
Adopting the traditional tea-making method from Shizuoka's Makinohara region, freshly harvested tea leaves are steamed slowly, bringing out the full flavor of the leaves. The leaves, stems, and other parts that are usually sorted out are included, resulting in a tea with soft astringency and an outstanding richness, loved by tea farmers.
Bringing Out the Umami and Aroma of the Tea Leaves
Kaneju Sencha blends in the typically sorted stems and leaves, highlighting the qualities of each part to create a tea that is neither overpowering nor lacking in flavor.
Traditional Tea-Making Method from Makinohara
Tea leaves from Makinohara, exposed to strong sunlight, are thicker than those from mountainous regions. To maximize the characteristics of these leaves, the "deep steaming method" was developed about 50-60 years ago, which extends the steaming time. Deep-steamed tea leaves have a beautiful dark green color, less bitterness, and a rich, robust flavor.
