Sirocco Buy Medium Yuzu Sencha tea tin (120g)

The sencha for this refreshing green tea composition thrives in the gentle volcanic hills of Kagoshima Prefecture on the island of Kyūshū, the southernmost of Japan's four main islands. The island is known for its breathtaking volcanic landscape and special climate. The harvest takes place in spring and produces a mild, highly aromatic tea with a delicate sweetness. Sencha, the most popular green tea in Japan, literally means "tea infusion" in Japanese. For Yuzu Sencha, the cultivars Yabukita and the rare Kanayamidori are blended. The emerald green, shimmering, needle-shaped tea leaves enchant with a bright jade-green cup. rzThe wonderfully aromatic, fresh character of a very fine sencha harmonizes perfectly with the tingling-sweet, incomparably complex citrus nuances of the yuzu fruit. In Japan, it has been a trend for some time to blend high-quality green teas with traditional Japanese foods.

Yuzu is a citrus fruit that has been native to East Asia for thousands of years and is a cross between the Ichang lemon and the wild mandarin. It is considered a classic ingredient in Japanese cuisine and has a very complex taste of citrus notes and a floral aroma, similar to a mixture of lime, lemon, mandarin and umami sweetness. The yellow to light orange fruit is the size of a tennis ball and the flesh is very juicy. The yuzu fruit is also becoming increasingly popular in Europe Beland is now used as an ingredient in some foods.

This organic Sencha green tea with yuzu flavor is more than just a drink; it is a tribute to the misty slopes of Kagoshima and the art of tea making. Each cup of e rztells the story of people who capture the essence of nature with dedication and respect. A moment with this tea is like a journey to the sources of peace and mindfulness.

A cheerful pick-me-up in winter and, enjoyed as an iced tea, a wonderfully refreshing companion in summer.
