Watanabe Myô Tennen Gyokuro (organic)
SOLD OUT
In the organic tea garden of Keita and Mankichi Watanabe, shrubs of the Sae Midori variety are used for the production of Myô. Shrubs of this variety are
not only very rare in themselves, but are also special in the Watanabe tea garden, where there are only five rows of this variety. For this reason alone, the harvest of this tea is very strictly limited.
Keita Watanabe follows a minimalist fertilisation concept for the Myô, which takes into account the special environment of the tea garden in the middle of Yakushima's nature. The soil between the individual rows of shrubs is mulched with branches and other parts of trees from the tea field's surroundings. Unlike usual for Gyokuro, no additional fertiliser is applied to the fields before harvesting. Instead, only the down-cut from other tea fields is used for fertilisation. Due to this unusual fertilisation concept and the long shading time of about 3 weeks, the noble Gyokuro Myô develops a fantastic umami. In 2022, this tea was harvested for the first time after several years of preparation of the field.
