I have tried several teas from Ocha, with sencha, gemai, and kabusecha begin my favorites. They have a clean, crisp, yet mellow taste and are perfect any time of the day.
I’ve tried many Japanese teas, but this is my new favorite! Excellent service and shipping time as well!
It’s a good blend to drink all day and not so temperamental with long brewing times. Hot or cold is just fine. It’s a fine taste for the price. It’s good if you want to serve to guests that might not enjoy a more brackish green tea.
I recently ordered the Organic Kabusecha tea (along with several others). This is a lovely tea and I would recommend it highly. I am so pleased with all of the teas that I ordered. Each one had specific brewing instructions for that particular tea, which is really helpful. Most companies that I’ve used before have had the same brewing instructions for all of their green teas. I will definitely be a repeat customer.
I purchased the Kabusecha and I love it. I've been drinking green tea for decades, and this is some of the best quality tea that I've ever had. The brew is a beautiful green - the color of honeydew - and the flavor is delicate and delicious. It may be slightly pricier than grocery store tea, but you can brew the same teaspoon of leaves over and over again - I probably brew 5 cups a day from the same tea leaves - so it ends up being well worth the price. I also feel comforted to know that green tea from Japan has lower lead levels than lots of other green tea.
