Japan Kabusecha Orihime Organic
Japan Kabusecha Orihime Organic is a high-quality, organically grown green tea from the Kyushu region in southwestern Japan. As a Kabusecha, it belongs to the category of special Japanese teas whose tea bushes are shaded for several days before harvest. This process allows the tea to develop a rich depth, greater body, and an elegant balance between the freshness of a Sencha and the delicate umami of a Gyokuro.
Even the dry leaf reveals its quality. The leaves are a deep dark green and carefully processed. In the cup, Japan Kabusecha Orihime Organic presents itself with a dark golden, slightly cloudy color and a complex character. In terms of flavor, it impresses with a delicate, nutty freshness, a subtle sweetness, and delicate hints of pear. This makes the tea soft, clear, and sophisticated all at once.
Its name, Orihime, evokes the legendary weaver princess from the Japanese Tanabata festival and lends this tea an additional cultural depth. However, its taste remains the defining factor. This Kabusecha appeals to customers seeking Japanese green tea with elegance, structure, and a distinctive character.
For preparation, we recommend soft water at approximately 70°C and a steeping time of about 2 minutes. This allows the delicate nuances to unfold optimally, and the tea remains mild, aromatic, and balanced.
