Compared to foreign black tea, it is characterized by a gentle taste with less astringency. The tea leaves grown in Ibi-gun, Gifu Prefecture are characterized by a refreshing sweetness, less bitterness, and a gorgeous aroma. The other lineups are particular about the most tea, but only Japanese black tea uses second flush (summer picked second tea) due to its characteristics. [About the season of black tea] Black tea is usually seasoned three times: spring, summer, and autumn, and the characteristics differ depending on the harvest time. It is also interesting that like green tea, the best tea is not necessarily the highest quality. Spring picking (first flush) makes it easy to feel freshness and freshness, while summer picking (second flush) has a mature image from there, with a mellow aroma and thick taste. The second flush, which has a thick aroma and taste, is recommended not only hot but also made into iced tea. ==================== ▶ Taste and aroma ==================== It has a refreshing sweetness with a refreshing feeling and a refreshing taste that does not leave an astringent aftertaste. The gorgeous scent derived from Kojun is impressive. You can enjoy it with milk or sugar, but Minokamo Tea Shop's Japanese black tea is less astringent and easy to drink, so I would like you to feel the original taste of tea leaves straight first. ==================== ▶ About the production area / producer ==================== Minokamo Tea Shop's tea is grown in Higashi-Shirakawa Village, which has a population of about 2,000 people located in the eastern part of Gifu Prefecture, which is considered to be the birthplace of "Shirakawa tea". Surrounded by mountains with an altitude of 1,000 meters, Higashishirakawa Village covers 90% of the total area in mountain forests. Tea leaves grown in tea plantations at an altitude of about 400 to 700 meters, which is said to be the limit of cultivation due to the large temperature difference between morning and evening, are characterized by a deep taste that harmonizes rich umami and refreshing astringency, and a refreshing "mountain scent". Japanese black tea is made from tea leaves produced by Mr. Yasue, a tea farmer in Higashishirakawa Village.
