Sencha Mobata - Shizuoka

쇔꿱 챦畑 

This Japanese Sencha, crafted in the traditional style of the Shizuoka prefecture by the Sugiyama family in the township of Mobata, offers a delightful and well-balanced brew. Its vibrant and vegetal flavor is complemented by a subtle bitterness and pleasant floral undertones, reminiscent of steamed broccoli and young grass shoots. This robust and approachable tea makes for a perfect daily companion.

For an optimal steeping experience, I recommend a controlled, quick infusion at a lower temperature to prevent over-steeping. And don’t forget to savor the second infusion; it promises an even richer experience when enjoyed immediately after the first.
