The 88th night (八十八夜, Hachijuhachiya) from the first official day of spring, Risshun (立春), marks the traditional beginning of the shincha (first flush) picking season. Tea leaves p icked in the two to three weeks following this day are the most highly prized in Japan. Our Spring Midori is a asamushi (light steamed) sencha offers a highly aromatic presence and powerful but elegant and well-rounded lingering sweetness. A much-appreciated and excellent choice of gift, as well as for savoring at home.
