Notes:

Crisp fruit and juicy grape acidity finish with fresh and rich notes of young bamboo shoots in this carefully made reserve sencha by mr. Takaki in Fukuoka Japan.
This tea is the result of a previously fallow tea garden that he rescued and dedicated to organic production.
Abandoned for its low yield, Takaki realized its 500m elevation meant less pests; that it meant more volatile oils, nutrients, and flavour complexities.
