[Ichibancha] Ingredients: Green tea (Shizuoka) Contents: 1kg [Konacha, a specialty of deep-steaming tea shops] Carefully selected and crafted from the powdered portion of the first-grade tea. The beautiful green color and astringent flavor leave your mouth feeling refreshed after a meal! Can be brewed with hot or cold water. *As this is powdered tea, the tea leaves are very fine. Please use a teapot or tea strainer with a fine mesh. Deep-steaming method that brings out the best in high-quality tea leaves: Arahataen's tea is made using the deep-steaming method, which steams the tea leaves three to four times longer than regular sencha. The Makinohara Plateau has long hours of sunlight, allowing thick, nutritious tea leaves to grow. Steaming these tea leaves for a long time reduces the tannin (bitterness) content and increases the amino acid theanine (sweetness), resulting in a mellow tea. The tea leaves are finely ground, but are characterized by a beautiful deep green color, mellow sweetness, and deep richness.
