Shimada Green Tea
When poured into a teacup, a clear green color and a gentle aroma float upward. With a single sip, a pleasant balance of clean umami and moderate astringency spreads through your palate. It is a cup with a refreshing aftertaste. Shimada is a tea-producing area embraced by the flow of the Oi River and the Makinohara Plateau. At the beginning of the Meiji era, samurai who had lost their livelihoods reclaimed the Makinohara area, carving out vast tea plantations. The river mist settling in the mountains and the temperature fluctuations between day and night nurture highly aromatic tea leaves. Today, a massive tea garden, boasting the largest area in Japan, stretches across the entire plateau. When finished as deep-steamed tea, it offers a mellow and rich flavor. Please enjoy a cup of this bounty grown by the tea plantations that stretch as far as the eye can see.
