Description
This Grand Cru, harvested in Shizuoka, Japan, is a true curiosity. Through direct contact, the green tea leaves gently absorbed the bergamot peel, coming together in perfect harmony.
This spring sencha boasts surprisingly intense citrus notes, which develop vegetal, milky and floral hints. A refreshing tea!
This tea is organically grown and has been certified by an approved independent testing center.
