Experience the delightful flavor of Nagasaki's award-winning Tsuyuhikari Shincha, a truly unique green tea. This shincha, renowned for its first harvest of the season, offers an enchanting taste profile that distinguishes it from other green teas. This tea is from Leo's tea trip to Japan to discover Japan's finest tea in May 2024.

Flavor Profile:

The Nagasaki Award-Winning Tsuyuhikari Shincha presents a harmonious blend of flavors that begins with a subtle sweetness reminiscent of fresh edamame, followed by a creamy, buttery note akin to butternut squash. This delightful combination results in a well-rounded, medium-bodied tea that perfectly balances lightness and substance, providing a rich and satisfying drinking experience.

Tsuyuhikari:

Tsuyuhikari, translating to "dew light," is a hybrid tea cultivar developed from the Shizu-Inzatsu 131 and Asatsuyu varieties. It is celebrated for its distinctive umami and sweetness, providing a smooth and mellow drinking experience. This cultivar thrives in the fertile, misty hills of Nagasaki, where the optimal growing conditions contribute to its exceptional quality.

Appearance:

One of the most striking features of this Tsuyuhikari Shincha is its beautiful jade green color. The vibrant hue is a testament to the tea's freshness and quality, inviting you to indulge in its visual appeal before savoring its rich flavors.

Brewing Instructions:

For the best experience, we recommend brewing 5 grams of Tsuyuhikari Shincha in a 250ml kyusu (traditional Japanese teapot) at a temperature of 165°F (74°C) for about one minute. This careful brewing process will ensure that you extract the full spectrum of flavors and aromas from the tea leaves, delivering a perfect cup every time.

Enjoy the harmonious blend of flavors and the captivating color of Nagasaki's award-winning Tsuyuhikari Shincha, a tea that promises a delightful and memorable experience with every sip.

The bests

I try many different types of green tea but this one is one of the best by far the taste the aroma is unbelievable thank you

Stunning green tea.

This tea is spectacular and has given me a new appreciation for green tea.
Like so many , the fiirst thing I noticed about this is the glowing green liquor.
I brewed it as suggested, the first sip tasted of edamame and vegetal with a savory background taste of cooked meat. That must be the Umamhi, it's lhas that savory meat sense, but you can't pinpoint a certain meat, it's just something that's there and keeps you smelling and tasting!

Green oh yeah

So good. So green :)

Love this tea!

This is one of the best. Sweet, and rich unami. Im so glad Leo has this one instock. I did repurchase it again.

Delicious and Refreshing

I was hoping this would not taste grassy, and I was pleasantly surprised. It actually has a hint of mango, my favorite fruit. I love the nice green color as well. This tea is a great way to start my day.

Consistently amazing

There's a reason why this tea is an award winner. Not only is the color eye-catching but the flavor is vegetal, it is smooth and minerally, heavy on the tongue. It's a very comforting tea with no astringency and no bitterness. It lasts for multiple steeps which makes the price worth it.

This tea is absolutely beautiful and wonderful to enjoy in the morning hours or in the afternoon.

Probably the freshest and tastiest tea I’ve had.

Nagasaki Award Winner Tsuyuhikari Tamaryokucha

The best taste tea i ever had, cold brew and steeping overnite,my 2nd order made..

Interesting tea

Didn't quite get the jade color like in the ads. Tastes like a freshly mowed lawn, which is not a complaint.

I've tried both hot and cold brew. Will keep experimenting with what is left.

Best Sencha I have ever tasted

It is delicious. Thought I had found my all time best but this is now it.

Good tea, loves it..

Lovely

Awesome tea great aroma and color. Loving it!

It’s the tea to buy right now. I’m mainly a Gyokuro drinker but this ranks right up there for taste preferences. And it’s a far better value.

Perfection

Still enjoying !!! So delish
