Shizuoka Sakura Karigane green tea comes from Kakegawa, one of the best production areas in Japan. The word "Karigane" in the name indicates its preciousness: this tea is made not only of leaves, but also of stems from high-quality Gyokuro from the Yabukita cultivar, a shaded tea with unparalleled umami. What makes this tea unique is the addition of ground Sakura leaves, the famous Japanese cherry tree, which give it a floral taste and sweet aroma. Tasting - Appearance and aroma Shizuoka Sakura Karigane green tea consists of both broken, small stems and forest-green leaves, with a glossy texture and irregular shape, partly flattened and partly more needle-like. Even before being wetted, they already give off a delicate floral aroma. Once infused, they release a very light vegetal aroma that develops into notes of yellow flowers, chamomile and fresh hay, with a slightly vanilla-like finish. The liquor in the cup is opaque, straw-yellow in color with delicate lime-green highlights. Tasting Notes CLASSIC TEAPOT OR KYUSU The presence of cherry leaves gives Shizuoka Sakura Karigane green tea a fresh and floral opening, with notes of chamomile and wildflowers. The taste is sweet and vanilla-like, with an extraordinarily sweet and soft umami and vegetal notes of boiled zucchini and pan-fried herbs. The contrast between sweet and savory is very pleasant and perfectly balanced. The floral note returns on the finish with a hint of vanilla and almond. The body is medium-density, extremely soft and velvety on the palate; the long-lasting finish is fresh, umami-rich and floral. Place of origin Kakegawa, Shizuoka, Japan Infusion method Place 3 grams of Shizuoka Sakura Karigane green tea leaves (about three teaspoons) in a Japanese teapot of the Kyusu type or, if unavailable, in a teapot preferably with a wide, flat base. Pour 200 ml of water at 75°C over the leaves and, after 1 and a half minutes, strain and serve the tea in cups. To make the most of the leaves and continue the tasting experience with this tea, we recommend making 3 more infusions using the same leaves with the same quantity and temperature parameters, but extending the infusion time by 5-10 seconds. The tea can be filtered for greater ease during tasting, and the infusion times indicated above are purely indicative, so they can also be adjusted according to personal taste. Since this is a Japanese green tea, we remind you that it is also possible to make a delicious cold-water infusion before proceeding with hot water. For the latter, we recommend, using the same grams of leaves per quantity of water, an infusion time of about 10 minutes. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
