About this tea
Onizuka San is a 5th generation organic tea farmer in the Shibushi area of Kagoshima. He is making mid-steamed tea with rich and juicy character. He is growing several cultivars for our organic sencha blends and puts his heart and soul into organic farming and all aspects of the production. This year we chose to highlight a single cultivar micro-lot from Onizuka San to showcase his hard work and devotion to our blends. This batch of Yutaka Midori is a full bodied and juicy sencha with rich flavors of umami and toasted chestnut. No matter hot, cold or ice brewed, this tea really delivers the juicy character of Kagoshima’s low-land and fertile volcanic soils. Yutaka Midori is the most prominent and widely grown tea cultivar of the Kagoshima region and its name literally means “rich green”.
