Description

First harvest 2025

For his most exceptional Sencha, Yamaguchi-san hand-picks in April only the tender new shoots of spring, the rarest and most delicate leaves of the year.

Harvested with meticulous care, the young Saemidori leaves yield a tea of remarkable depth, combining a mellow, umami-rich body with a refined sweetness.

As you open the bag, please take your time to appreciate a first wave of fresh pine-like aromas that will bring you instantly to the surroundings of Yamaguchi tea fields.

A lightly-steamed sencha (asamushi), KIWAMI has a beautiful light green liqueur, it is sweet and mellow with an incredible clean refreshing finish.

With hints of peppermint and star anise, the refreshing feeling will linger long after you finish your cup.

For the second brew, you can slightly increase the temperature and brew it a few seconds.
