This Tanegashima Saemidori Shincha is a delicate and refined tea that showcases the purity of early spring harvests. It offers a complex balance of grassy and floral flavors with a refreshing citrusy finish.

Schritt 1 – Beobachten des Erscheinungsbildes

The tea leaves are lightly rolled into needle shapes with some visible small leaf particles, typical of unshaded shincha. Their light green color hints at the tea’s fresh and delicate character.

Schritt 2 – Beurteilung des Aromas

Upon opening the package, you'll notice a gentle blend of hay-like grassiness and soft floral notes—bright, clean, and uplifting.

Schritt 3 – Verkostung des Tees

The tea opens with a clean grassy and hay aroma, followed by light floral flavors. It is best brewed carefully to avoid over-extraction—just one minute is enough. The finish has a well-balanced umami flavor complemented by citrusy brightness and a lingering fresh note.

Schritt 4 – Beurteilung des Gaumengefühls

This tea has a soft, thin mouthfeel with a gentle interplay of sweetness, floral aromatics, and acidity. While simple in structure, the layers of flavor offer a delightful tasting experience.

    You can rebrew the leaves 2–3 more times. For each additional steep, pour hot water and allow it to sit for about 20 seconds. The flavor will evolve, becoming fresher and more citrusy with each infusion.

    We do not recommend cold brewing this tea, as it’s better appreciated when brewed warm to highlight its delicate aromas and complex flavors.

Notwendiges Teegeschirr

To get the best experience, we suggest using a Fukamushi-style kyusu teapot. Its fine mesh filter prevents clogging and allows for a clean pour.

If you don’t have a kyusu, a simple tea strainer works as well—just be sure to remove the leaves promptly to prevent overbrewing.

Mr. Matsushita has also served as President of the Tanegashima Arasha Factory Association for 12 years. His fields are located in one of the best green tea regions of the island, producing high-quality leaves every spring.

Bezogen auf Tanegashima Mr. Eiichi Matsushita’s tea fields are nestled in the northern highlands of Tanegashima, a scenic island located about 115 kilometers south of Kagoshima City. This area benefits from a warm subtropical climate and ocean breezes that bring in mineral-rich air and morning mists—ideal conditions for early-season Shincha production. The fields sit at 223 meters above sea level, making them the highest in Banyamine and one of the most prized tea-growing areas on the island.

Sorten- und Teepflanzensorte

  • Saemidori

    Saemidori is a premium Japanese tea cultivar prized for its smoothness and vibrant color. A cross between Yabukita and Asatsuyu, it combines the rich umami of the latter with the balanced structure of the former. This cultivar sprouts early in the season, making it an excellent choice for producing high-quality shincha. When crafted into sencha or shincha, Saemidori yields a bright green infusion with a delicate floral aroma, mellow sweetness, and a clean, refreshing finish with minimal bitterness.
