loose leaf green tea
A type of Sencha from Kagoshima Prefecture, an area with a highly favourable climate and plentiful rainfall, providing optimal conditions for growing tea. A layer of volcanic ash, known locally as "shirasu", also covers most of the land thereabouts, imbuing the soil with minerals and nutrients. The green tea leaves produce a pale green liquor when brewed, the aroma and taste of which hint at young pea and milk.
Preparation guidelines: Use 12 g of tea (approx. 6 even tsp) for 1 litre of water at the temperature of 70-80°C. Allow to infuse for 2-3 minutes, then strain. Suitable for 2-3 infusions.

The green tea leaves produce a pale green liquor, the aroma and taste of which suggest young pea with a hint of m ilk.
