From Yunomi

Tea farmer Kuwazuru Sumiyoshi (Kuwazuru is his family name) is the only farmer to carry on this traditional method of shading tea leaves direct with straw. Warakake (literally “straw covered”) is a deep-steamed sencha or fukamushicha from the Chiran Village in Kagoshima.

Happy 101st tasting note to me!

IT’S FINALLY TIME! I’ve finished all the opened samples of my Japanese greens, so i can treat myself to a new spring 2023 tea! WOOOO. This fukamushi is remarkable – it was chewy and intense for the first three shakes of my kyusu, and kept it’s savory twang until steep 5. The wet leaf was very interesting as well, reminded me of my favorite shrimp chips. I know, sounds gross, but it propelled me to make another round as soon as the first leaves were spent. yayyy tea!
