Description

Sencha Kagoshima Green Tea – Octavia Tea (Sample Size)

Introduction:

Carpets of bright green, perfectly groomed tea bushes grow beneath the shadow of an active volcano in Kagoshima Prefecture, one of Japan’s premiere tea-growing regions.  The fertile, volcanic soil and the tea maker’s meticulous steaming techniques give Sencha Kagoshima Green Tea (the traditional tea of Japan) a grassy-pine aroma, deep umami flavor, and sweet, fresh finish.  Japanese green teas require lower water temperatures and steep times than many other tea types (we recommend 180° F for 2 minutes).
