Description

The Asamushi Premium Sencha is another high-quality addition to our green tea range. Unlike “classic” senchas from Japan, it impresses less with a fresh, grassy taste and more with complex notes that are unusually warm for a sencha. For this tea, only the youngest and most tender leaves of the first spring harvest were picked – similar to a fine Gyokuro. After production, the tea is given a fine, light roasting called Hiire (火入れ). It is only gentle and does not change the appearance of the leaves, but it intensifies and rounds off the aroma.

Taste

Much like a precious Hon Gyokuro Kusanagi, the Asamushi Premium Sencha impresses with a complex, deep taste experience. In the first infusions, you’ll find notes of roasted almonds and dark chocolate. With each infusion, the aroma shifts more toward freshness and becomes slightly grassy. The cup glows in an intense, slightly cloudy golden green. A feast for all the senses!

Origin

The Asamushi Premium Sencha comes from a tea garden in the Kagoshima region on the Japanese island of Kyushu. Besides this sencha, our Matcha is also made there.

  • Origin: Kagoshima, Kyushu, Japan
  • Cultivar: special blend of different cultivars
  • Steaming: Asamushi (あさむし), 20–30 seconds
  • Shading: 10 days
  • Harvest: first spring harvest, only the youngest leaves
  • Roasting: light Hiire roasting
  • Caffeine: medium

Preparation

People could argue about the right way to prepare a sencha. We think it tastes best when you pour 500 ml of water at 70 °C over 6 g of tea leaves and let it steep for 2 minutes.

A sencha of this quality can also easily be prepared in a kyusu, an original Japanese side-handle teapot. Let 4 g of tea leaves steep in 100 ml of water at 60 °C for 2 minutes. Multiple infusions are explicitly encouraged.
