More about Tenka-ichi (50g Bag)
This 50g Bag of Tenka-ichi is shade-grown Japanese green tea with concentrated umami from Ippodo Tea, a family-run Kyoto tea company founded in 1717. IppodoTea.com is the official Ippodo Tea online store for the United States and Canada.
Ippodo Tea flavor note: Rich & Robust
Ippodo tasting notes: Tenka-ichi means “the best under the heavens.” True to its name, this gyokuro represents the pinnacle of luscious umami in our selection. We produce this blend from the top gyokuro farms in the Kyoto area. Its taste is smooth and robust, its aroma sings, and its aftertaste lingers with layers of complexity. We recommend enjoying this remarkable tea slowly at contemplative tea sessions. We also recommend Tenka-ichi as cold brew, to taste the full potential of its deep umami and sweetness.
