Immerse yourself in the delicate flavours of Sencha Saemidori tea. Sourced from the picturesque mountainous areas of Yabe Village in Japan, this tea stands out for its superior quality and exceptional taste.

"Saemidori", which means "bright green" in Japanese, is a special variety developed in 1969. It is a harmonious blend of Asatsuyu, known for its rich umami flavours, and Yabukita, renowned for its balanced flavour and robustness. 

This bright green tea is celebrated for its minimal bitterness and pleasant combination of refreshing flavor and natural sweetness.
