Japanese Green Tea Shizuoka Meicha

Home > Resources > Asian Pantry > Japanese Green Tea Shizuoka Meicha

Today, almost half of all the green tea consumed in Japan is produced in the Shizuoka region. It is widely considered to be the Nappa Valley of Green Tea. Meicha is harvested from only the top leaf buds picked in the spring. It is a robust tasting green tea with deep flavor, moderate astringency, and a slightly bitter aftertaste. The Japanese people so highly revere the quality and taste of Meicha, it is often the gift of choice at special events and is also served in fine restaurants. Tea connoisseurs rank it as high as the best Sencha.

2 Containers, 100 grams each
