Fukamushi Kabusecha Yame Premium (100 g)
Semi-shaded tea from Yame – deeply steamed, intense, and exceptionally smooth.
1. The Harmony of Shading and Deep Steaming
Fukamushi Kabusecha combines two special elements of Japanese tea art:
the delicate sweetness of a Kabusecha (semi-shaded tea) and the intense aroma of a Fukamushi (deeply steamed green tea).
Before harvesting, the tea plants are partially shaded. This allows the leaves to develop more chlorophyll, a deeper green color, and a softer, umami-rich flavor profile.
Subsequently, the intense steaming ensures a particularly full, smooth, and aromatic cup.
The result:
A green tea with exceptional depth, creamy texture, and gentle intensity.
Even upon opening, a fresh, sweet-green fragrance with subtle nutty nuances unfolds.
2. Flavor Profile
