Luckily I did not notice the teabag itself adding any aroma to the tea, it is always so annoying when I can smell bag.\n\u003cp\u003eThe taste is at first that of kelp giving it an umami quality that is quite appealing, especially as it fades to a fresh grass sweetness in the aftertastes. Of course there is a midtaste in between, and it is a blend of spinach and kale, but without the bitter quality that kale has when raw. This tea is quite good for bagged tea and is, of course, the quality I expect from yunomi-jp.pro.

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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause 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 (\u003cem\u003eshibumi\u003c\/em\u003e) and sweetness (\u003cem\u003eamami\u003c\/em\u003e), with hints of the soft young leaf buds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Info\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients\u003c\/strong\u003e: Green tea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHarvest\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCultivar\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yabukita\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.4; font-size: 15px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCultivation Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e: Certified JAS Organic.
