Yama Oku Sencha Kirishima Miumori (organic)

Imagine you are standing early in the morning amidst misty mountain slopes, surrounded by deep green tea bushes - this is exactly where Yama Oku Sencha grows: in the remote tea gardens of Shutaro Hayashi in the Kirishima Mountains, far away from the hustle and bustle and industry. "Yama Oku" means "deep in the mountains" - a name that not only sets the tone geographically, but also in terms of taste: calm, soft, profound.

This organically grown sencha is created from a finely balanced composition of three special tea bush varieties: Oku Yutaka, Oku Midori and a touch of Yabukita. All three thrive at higher altitudes and sprout late - which allows them to survive frosty nights in spring and slowly but intensively gain aroma. The particularly gentle steaming process emphasizes their harmonious nuances.

The taste of Yama Oku impresses with an exceptionally velvety texture with creamy, soft notes and a subtly sweet, nutty depth. It drinks almost like a poem: clear, round and calm - just right for moments when you want to be consciously present. With every cup, this Sencha gives you a piece of Japanese serenity.

The tea comes from the first spring harvest - a time when the energy of the tea plants is particularly concentrated. This tea is a precious discovery, especially for connoisseurs who seek depth rather than volume.

Note for connoisseurs: The fine sorting and processing is familiar from Shutaro's teas - those who like his style will love the Yama Oku.
