Kuchikiri no Matcha Usucha Wakamori no Shiro

Kuchikiri seasonal matcha from Kanbayashi Shunsho.

Kuchikiri means breaking the seal of the jar. After harvesting, tea leaves are kept to mature in sealed clay jars in chambers from early Spring, and these jars are first opened in Autumn. This is how fall season tea came to be called kuchikiri tea.

TASTE NOTES:
It is an exceptionally pleasant autumn-inspired usucha. It has a medium body and a well-balanced flavor. It is smooth and mellow, with subtle woodsy and nutty notes, reminding of baked chestnuts. Initially, its mild spiciness has a slight bite on the tongue, but this quickly smooths out without turning bitter. Instead, it becomes velvety and soothing.

The meaning of Wakamori no Shiro 若森の白:
