Description

This special green tea is plucked on the 88th day after the Japanese spring equinox in Kagoshima Prefecture (known for producing especially rich and sweet green teas). The aroma of the dry tea leaves is so rich and fresh it is almost intoxicating. The steeped liquor is sweet, savory, smooth, silky, spring-like, with a fullness of flavor that fills your spirit, and a long lingering aftertaste that leaves you basking in a shimmering afterglow.
