What teas are in in this set?
This set includes two premium sencha green teas, selected by Ippodo as an engaging comparison.
Fresh New Harvest: Shincha is a limited sencha tea that is released right after harvest with no resting process. It has a vibrant character with an amazingly fresh fragrance, with brilliant umami and eye-opening greenness. Fans delight in the nuances in this tea’s flavour, which change year-to-year depending on the climate in the regions.
Classic and Mature: Kumpu is a regular Ippodo sencha. Since it has been rested after harvest, it has a more mature, more developed taste. An elegant full-bodied blend with umami, sweetness, and a delicate, lingering aftertaste.
How to enjoy it?
Brew them side-by-side to compare and contrast the regular sencha Kumpu with new sencha Shincha. Or, enjoy them one-at-a-time, at your own pace.
Pairing suggestions: Match shincha’s bright energy with your favourite fresh seasonal fruits. Pair Kumpu's delicate umami with pastries or wagashi (Japanese confections) that are not-too-sweet.
