A limited batch of organic yabukita sencha that was hand-picked (Tezumi in Japanese) at the Nishi families organic tea plantations in the mountains of Kirishima, Kagoshima in early spring this year from their organic certified yabukita tea garden.

Regarded as approximately a medium steamed sencha by Mr. Nishi although in appearance it's closer to a light steamed sencha rather than deep steamed. Although there are many yabukita sencha that have been machine harvested with moderate character and taste, you'll find this hand-picked one purveys the great pronounced richness and aroma of the yabukita cultivar to its fullest. A very special hand-picked organic sencha.
