Japanese black tea bags made only from Ureshi's tea leaves. No fragrances are used, and the scent is 100% natural.

In recent years, domestic black tea has become popular as "Japanese black tea". Japanese black tea has a very different aroma and taste depending on the variety of tea leaves and the method of making it, and it is a Japan tea that tends to show the maker's feelings for tea. Tenocha's Japanese black tea is made by Shunsuke Nagao, the ninth generation of the Nagao Tea Factory. In order to bring out the umami-sweet taste that is characteristic of Ureshino (Ureshino), the green tea variety is black tea.
Oisuse (Oi Hayao) is added as the main variety to achieve a multi-layered fragrance. The gorgeous aroma is mixed with a gentle cocoa aroma. By slowly oxidizing and fermenting to prevent astringency, it has a delicious black tea that is fragrant but easy to drink, with a slight sweetness.
When it was adopted this summer by a café that mainly serves baked donuts that are particular about ingredients, it became overwhelmingly popular as a cold brew Japanese tea. The natural gorgeous aroma that is not too strong leaves a faint impression in the mouth after it passes through the nose, enhancing the taste of sweets. The fact that the cold brew has a solid orange light blue color is also perfect for summer, and the owner was pleased that the number of additional drinks ordered increased.
Even when boiling hot water (3 minutes of boiling water), there is no astringency and the ease of drinking does not change. Adding a little milk brings out the natural sweetness of the tea, so it is recommended in winter.
It is non-sugar and easy to drink, and a famous supporting role that exquisitely brings out the taste and combination of ingredients in sweets. Since it is a "black tea that does not use black tea varieties", it does not have a flashy aroma, but it was a convincing cup that was chosen by those who are particular about it.
Since it is a black tea without astringency, there is no particular difficulty when brewing it with boiling water. In the case of cold brew, the amount of water and the extraction time are key.
