Chiyonoen Tea Farm

A very pleasant and complex sencha – I love this kind og very small farm teas.
The fresh taste with strong umami made me think of shincha. All of the ‘standard’ sencha tastes – seaweed, fresh grass, peas, etc. But also some more dark tastes like nutmeg and maybe nuts.
Fantastic tea. I think it is available at yunomi.

Fantastic full bodied Japanese black tea! My first Japanese black tea, ir was very unique. Very interesting and full notes. Closest thing might be a Jin Jun Mei or a high quality Yunnan pure bud.
One of my prized possessions, I would love to visit Chiyonoen again, to stock up.
