PREORDER available late May 🍵 2026 #0055.S5 NaturaliTea: Mountain-grown Fukamushi Sencha, Yabukita 有機一番摘み煎茶 山の深蒸し
Following the harvest in the spring, tea leaves are immediately steamed before rolling and drying into sencha. During this initial steaming phase, by increasing the steaming time (40+ seconds), we create fukamushi or deep-steamed tea. This deep-steaming breaks down the cells in the leaf more than regular steaming allowing the flavor to be released more quickly and in greater amounts when steeping. This results in a deeper green, but more opaque tea with a strong flavor.
Because mountain-grown tea leaves are more delicate than those grown on flatlands, we only increased the steaming by a little in order to create a unique balance between astringency (shibumi) and sweetness (amami), with hints of the soft young leaf buds.
