from a duo of complementary cultivars – saemidori, for its luminous sweetness, and yabukita, for its crisp freshness – this sencha benefits from a fine and continuous innovative watering that protects the young shoots and concentrates their sap. the cup is pure, fresh, and harmonious with a calm energy typical of southern kyushu.

producer


The Kirishima region in Kagoshima Prefecture has long been recognized as one of the great terroirs of Japanese tea.

Kirishima teas are born at the foot of the sacred mountains of Japanese mythology. Between volcanic lands, morning mists, and pure waters, the tea gardens of Kirishima give rise to teas of remarkable finesse and great aromatic depth.

The producer from whom we source directly and visit regularly pays particular attention to the quality of each production. Each batch is systematically tasted and validated by the manager of the operation himself, ensuring consistency and uncompromising standards.

We hope that each cup will allow you to feel the purity of the air of Kirishima, its preserved nature, and its almost sacred atmosphere. These teas offer a bright freshness, a beautiful aromatic transparency, and a delicate umami that faithfully reflect the unique character of this exceptional region.
