SHZ0001 "FUJIEDAKAORI" (40g)

A rare cultivar with JASMINE and CINNAMON aroma.

The most beautiful thing about Fujiedakaori is its aroma. It is rare to find a tea with such a sweet and gorgeous aroma like jasmine and cinnamon that can be so thoroughly enjoyed.
The lingering astringent taste on the tongue is also pleasant; in a good sense, it is a tea that tastes, unlike sencha.

Fujiedakaori is a tea cultivar originated in Fujieda, Shizuoka. Because of its unique aroma, it is not suitable for blending, and few producers now make Fujiedakaori. Mr.Nakayama is a veteran producer who has been cultivating Fujiedakaori for over 15 years.

He maneuvers the small truck with a deft hand and makes smooth progress along the rugged mountain roads. We were led to a tea farm located at an altitude of about 400 meters, where the beautiful breathtaking scenery spread out right before our eyes: The tea farms, mountains, and blue sky. We were convinced that the great tea leaves would surely be cultivated on this farm.

This tea contains a floral scent and a refreshing astringency. Our recommendation is to brew it at a high temperature to bring out the aroma and astringency and drink it slowly. Enjoy the changing aroma as the temperature is lowered. You can also enjoy the gorgeous aroma of a cold brew without the astringent taste.
