Benifuuki No. 1, organic

An organic Benifuuki from Kagoshima with a fresh, green presence

Benifuuki No. 1 brings a clear Japanese green tea to your cup: certified organic according to DE-ÖKO-013, grown in Kagoshima in southern Japan and cultivated without shade. The profile is direct, green, and calm – without grand gestures, with a clear profile.

Sensory-wise, it shows a bright, clear cup with a refreshingly vegetal character. A subtle bitterness gives it contour, while floral nuances soften the profile a bit.

The tea comes from the first spring harvest, Ichibancha. This early season sets a fresh, green framework; the unshaded leaves keep it close to a sun-kissed green tea profile.

Irimushi, the ultra-high-temperature processing, gives the tea a distinctly processed framework. Thus, Benifuuki No. 1 is a great choice if you are looking for Japanese green tea from Kagoshima with a direct character.
