A refreshing surprise in an intense green: the Kabuse Shincha by the Watanabe family!

This special shincha (Japanese for "new tea") is not an ordinary shincha, but a well composed blend of the three tea-varieties Asatsuyu, Kuritawase and Sae Midori.

Mankichi Watanabe shaded the tea bushes with dark nets (Kabuse) for about 14 days before the harvest. Through this relatively long time the plants could still form chlorophyll and thus develop a sweeter taste.

Shincha denotes the first tea leaves of the first harvest of a year and is only produced from the freshly picked and youngest shoots in the new spring. The taste of this shincha is extremely fresh and fruity, very aromatic and yet soft with a delicate-sweet appeal. The cup shines in light green and has a very lasting taste.
