Organically Grown Black Tea / ORGANIC BLACK TEA / Kagoshima Prefecture 100g

The Essence of Yamato Midori, Grown from 80 Years of Wisdom
An Organic Japanese Black Tea from Ancient Trees

This organic Japanese black tea is harvested from 80-year-old Yamato Midori tea trees — a rare cultivar nurtured entirely through natural farming methods. Grown in carefully enriched soil using techniques such as rice malt and black vinegar fermentation, and completely free from chemical pesticides, this tea expresses the pure richness of nature. A Japanese heritage cultivar, Yamato Midori thrives in eco-friendly cultivation and imparts a depth of flavor only time can create.

The resulting black tea carries a smooth, gentle aroma, full-bodied richness, and a light, easy-drinking quality. With hints reminiscent of Darjeeling, Nilgiri, and Ceylon teas, its character is especially profound thanks to the maturity of the tea trees, cultivated over eight decades.

A Symphony of Four Sensory Elements

• Flavor : Mellow and refined, Yamato Midori tea is notably low in astringency and offers a soothing, gentle taste.

• Aroma : Elegant floral and fruity notes rise gracefully from the cup — aromatic and refreshing, with occasional bursts of fragrance as it brews.

• Body : Medium-bodied with depth and richness, yet never heavy. It strikes a harmonious balance between fullness and lightness.
  

• Color : When steeped, the tea reveals a vibrant golden hue with a subtle reddish tint — a clear, beautiful liquor that is visually as pleasing as it is flavorful.
  

Suggested Enjoyment: Versatile and Comforting

Thanks to its mellow character and depth, Yamato Midori black tea is ideal for milk tea and chai. Its low bitterness makes it especially well-suited for milk, creating a smooth and indulgent cup.

As a milk tea, its elegant floral and fruity aromas harmonize with the creaminess of milk for a luxurious experience. In chai, its rich body pairs beautifully with spices for a warming, full-bodied drink. And on warm days, it transforms into a delightful iced tea — offering a refreshing aroma and striking color that make even a chilled cup feel seasonal and special.
