Fully enjoy Shincha with this teapot set
This set includes shincha and our brand-new, beginner-friendly kyusu (teapot). Shincha's precious, energetic fragrance is perhaps best enjoyed when brewed in a kyusu, the Japanese-style teapot. The kyusu allows you to brew precisely for a short time, avoiding over-steeping or under-steeping the delicate new harvest. If you are new to shincha or Japanese green teas, try this starter set, and fully experience the taste of the season: bright, youthful, and full of energy.

What is Shincha?
Shincha is a special release of sencha green tea that is produced and shipped just days after it was harvested. Our Shincha has an amazingly fresh fragrance and a vibrant, naturally sweet and slightly bitter taste, like spring vegetables.
Fans delight in the nuances in this tea’s flavour, which change year-to-year depending on the climate in region.
This year's Shincha
Shincha 2025 has a soaring fresh green fragrance.
Its taste is full of rich umami that lingers long after swallowing. There's only a hint of astringency, and we recommend this tea for beginners as well.
Try it as a hot brew to enjoy its brilliant fragrance. Or, brew it with cold water to savour its lush sweetness. Either way, we' are happy to report that this year's Shincha is one of the most flavourful in recent memory.
The lid and body fit perfectly, creating a custom seal
The lid and mouth of the kyusu have been custom-shaped to fit each other perfectly so that tea does not leak when pouring. The knob is also easy to hold when removing the lid.
Pours out every last drop
The strainer inside has a large number of holes. Easily pours out the very last drop and the concentrated flavour that it contains.
Shallow design and black color make it easier to see the tea leaves
When you add water to this kyusu, the tea leaves suddenly take on a fresh, vivid appearance. It is a dark ceramic, which contrasts with the tea leaves' colour, allowing you to view them clearly.
