What shincha do you recommend?

Uji Shincha Medium Canw/box (146g)

Why do you choose it?

I don’t get to see my grandparents very often, and they’ve always liked to drink Japanese tea, so I give them shincha, which offers them a taste that can only be savoured around this time of year. With about 150 grams of shincha, they should be able to drink it every day until late spring. I hope they will try it prepared in a variety of different ways.

How would you like them to enjoy it?

The easiest way to enjoy it is to prepare it quickly with hot water and savour shincha’s wonderful fragrance. Another way is to enjoy shincha’s refreshing taste by cold brewing it and drinking it with a meal. And we mustn’t forget the delight of shincha’s characteristic refreshing fragrance when opening the bag and right after preparing it in a kyusu.

How would you like them to enjoy it?

I want him to be able to prepare and enjoy refreshing Japanese tea quickly and easily, even at work. I also hope he’ll use it as an interesting topic of discussion, because Drip Tea Bag Shincha is a rare kind of Japanese tea product.
