Its partly Indian genome also gives rise to a unique taste experience. It combines a sharp bitterness with a pleasant flowery aroma reminiscent of lilacs blooming in late May, as if to suggest that bright and sunny days are ahead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt tastes good even when steeped in a way similar to black tea, in boiling hot water but with a minimum of leaves (2-3g tea leaves, 200ml boiling hot water, 3 minutes). \"The First\" also makes an excellent cold infusion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis tea is grown in Mariko, a small community in Shizuoka that is famous for Wakōcha, or Japanese Black Tea. Usually plucked in early April, it tends to become the first tea to be harvested on the main island Honshū every year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients\u003c\/strong\u003e: Pure Japanese Green Tea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Orthodox Sencha\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHarvest\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e: Mariko, Shizuoka Prefecture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCultivar\u003c\/strong\u003e: Kondōwase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout Senchaism\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eWhere tradition meets creativity, and crafting skills intersect with art\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere’s much more to Japanese green tea than the umami that initially hits the tastebuds.
