Sencha Asamiya Mist 70 gram

Sencha Asamiya Mist. The tea is grown entirely without the use of pesticides in the small mountain region of Asamiya, Shigaraki. Tea is here cultivated at an elevation of 300–500 meters above sea level. Asamiya is one of Japan’s original tea-growing regions and is counted among its famous tea regions, and it lies very close to Kyoto. It is one of the oldest tea-growing areas in Japan, if not the very oldest, and the first tea seeds in Asamiya are said to have been planted there by the monk Saichō.

The tea has dark emerald green leaves as some shading of the tea bushes has taken place before harvesting, which gives the tea a sweeter taste.
