Cultivated and harvested at an altitude of 650m in Narao Shizuoka, this single-origin Sencha “Midori” tea boasts a superior quality to regular Sencha tea and a heightened deep umami due to the leaves having to adapt to the cold temperatures. With its fragrant aroma and unique complexity and depth, Midori makes for an elegant taste.
