Organic Shibushi Karigane

DKK 180.00

In the cup: A vibrant, bright green tea with a sweet, muscat-like flavor and a smooth, refreshing finish.

This premium Gyokuro Kukicha (Karigane Grade S) is produced by Mr. Sakamoto in Kagoshima. It is harvested in early May and is made from a blend of select cultivars: Saemidori, Seimei, and Haruto 34. Shaded before harvest, it develops a rich, umami depth.

The tea can be brewed at low temperatures for a sweet, umami-rich infusion, but is equally delicious when brewed at higher temperatures, bringing out a different depth of flavor.

Karigane is ideal for enjoying in the morning. The stems mixed with the tea leaves offers a tea with less caffeine—a soft start to the day.
