The advent of spring heralds this elite “Jade Dew” tea that it entirely produced by hand in a boutique setting in Aichi Prefecture. The emerald leaf takes on a lustrous, splinterlike appearance after being subjected to full shading under trellises for several weeks. Intense chartreuse cup, with rewarding notes of seaweed and honeydew melon. A brief second infusion is possible.

Preparation: 1 level teaspoon tea leaves per 8oz cup of filtered water, boiled and cooled to 60°C/140°F. Allow to brew 2 minutes.
