Asamiya / Black Tea / 20g

This black tea is made in Asamiya, a historic tea-producing region in Shiga Prefecture. It uses the "Benifuki" cultivar, specifically developed in Japan for black tea production. Its characteristics include an overwhelming sweetness and a light astringency. You can also taste a refreshing, fruity flavor reminiscent of lemon. Even if steeped for a long time, there is almost no unpleasant bitterness, allowing you to enjoy its elegant taste throughout. If you dislike the astringency of black tea, please give this a try.
