This fukamushi sencha has a lot going for it. Great price, nice green color and smell, nice flavor and can be steep 5+ times a. It gets 4 stars because it does have a strong astringency. But for this price, that's what is expected. Overall for the price, I'll be buying more of this tea for my late morning cups of tea when flavor profile is less important to me.
Fukamushi Deep-Steamed Sencha Green Tea is a vibrant and aromatic delight. Its deep-steamed leaves release a smooth, mellow, and balanced cup with a touch of sweetness. A testament to Japanese tea craftsmanship, it offers a refreshing and enjoyable experience for green tea enthusiasts.
We ordered 3 teas and they came in days!! This is the least expensive one, the “regular” Fukamushi and we like it very much. We use 2 infusions and a <70°C water temperature. Thank you Ocha
Can't live without my Sencha. I've been ordering from Ocha for years and will never stop!
This Fukamushi has become my daily green tea, excellent deep green color and flavor profile, and a great price here direct from Ocha. Also, I can get multiple steepings (2 or 3) from one batch. While it may not have quite as pleasing of a flavor as the organic Fukamushi, the price makes it great for a daily sencha.
