Organicloose leaf black tea
Producing black tea (known as "kuro") is highly unusual in Japan. This example is harvested from the Benifuuki cultivar of tree on a family-run farm in Kagoshima Prefecture, which has been in the business since 1970. The estate is overseen by a young woman, an uncommon practice in the country. Brewing the dark brown leaves results in a brown-orange liquor with the aroma and taste of forest honey, cocoa bean and a subtle hint of orange note at the close.
Preparation guidelines: Use 12 g of tea (approx. 6 heaped tsp) per 1 l of freshly boiled water. Allow to infuse for 3 minutes, then strain. Suitable for 1 infusion.
