Packaging
Packed in a particularly high-quality, hermetic aroma protection bag with zipper and stand-up bottom. The tea is protected in the best possible way from oxidation and from the effects of pollutants by means of a 9-fold layer with extremely high barrier security. In addition, each bag is vacuum packed according to the best packaging standards in Japan and a little nitrogen is added so that the tea is protected from oxidation in the best possible way.
Recommended Teapot
Ideal for this Sencha is a red Tokoname-Kyusu with fine ceramic sieve (the special clay and the oxidation firing bring out especially the valuable noble bitterness more beautifully), alternatively a black Tokoname-Kyusu (reduction firing, all-rounder for all green tea varieties).
Recommended Storage
A high-quality tea caddy made of cherry bark (solid wood, Kabazaiku Chazutsu) is ideal, alternatively a cheaper, internally coated, airtight tea caddy.
