This is a premium grade Sencha from the Taniba area in Chiran, Kagoshima. Taniba’s climate is warm and the soil is fertile allowing the tea trees to grow without stress. Den’s Sencha Taniba is made even better due to its special cultivar, “Okumidori”. Okumidori produces a deep green cup, with light sweetness and little astringency. It is a great Sencha for a slow and relaxing tea time.
