Kamairicha Nagao - Ureshino, Kyushu

Product Description

Origin: Ureshino, Japan

Ingredients: Green Tea 100%

This unique tea is prepared by tea master Nagao, according to an ancient procedure, introduced to Japan by the Chinese more than 500 years ago. Kamairicha means kettle-roasted tea. To prevent oxidation right after plucking the tea, the tea is not heated by steaming but by constantly stirring it in an iron kettle. The deep-roasting of the tea gives it its specific sweet, flowery flavor and aroma. Pale yellow liquid in the cup.
Water temperature: 70°C. Use 2-3 g per small cup. Infuse for 1-1.5 min. Pour all tea till the last drop so you can make a good second round with the same tea leaves.
