Morimoto Sencha Okumidori

Fine leaves and a few leaf stalks of the Okumidori cultivar, harvested in June and August, are the basis of this fine Japanese Sencha green tea. The stalks, which are mixed with the leaves, absorb the flavour of the tea. After the June harvest, the Morimoto family (pictured below) cut their tea bushes down completely, making leaves harvested in August somewhat thinner and sweeter.

This tea is produced using environmentally sustainable methods.
