Emeric visited Matsuda and his family on his recent trip to Japan. Their house is located halfway up a hill that is covered with tea bushes, and looking out over the valley, that is all one sees. The family's abode has been all business for generations. They have a space to make tea behind their home, equipped with steamers to fix green tea and rollers. This tradition and dedication serve us well because it is a unique Sencha with a distinctive aroma, great body, and flavors that are hard to forget.

Details:It's an honor to be the sole source for this great Japanese Sencha. The life's work of a great tea man and his family, this Sencha has a great body and flavor.
Dry Leaves:The slender spears are a vivid forest green, which comes from constant attention throughout the year.
Liquor:In the cup, the tea is an intense yellow-green. This is a sign that Matsuda has not taken the shortcut of covering his tea bushes like some of his neighbors.
Aroma:Many senchas have similar aromas. However, Matsuda's teas smell wonderfully vibrant. There are fresh lemon notes backed by a nice spinachy aroma and roasted hints of nori seaweed.
Flavors:If you like the vegetal flavors of Japanese green teas, you are in for a treat! Matsuda opens with vegetal flavors that seem like sautéed chard and finishes with roasted nori. The tea's pale sweetness is balanced by a slight bitterness on the back of the tongue. The sweetness endures and evolves long after you've sipped the tea.
Caffeine Level:Caffeinated
Body:Medium-bodied. A tea that is mouth-filling and brothy. This comes from the high levels of amino acids.
