Chiyonoen Tea Garden #09: Mountain-Grown Yame Sencha, Yamakiri 特上煎茶...
The Harashima family's Yamakiri (signifying "mountain mist") is a medium grade sencha that evokes the mountain mists that surround their tea fields in the cool morning spring air. This is a blended sencha utilising the Yabukita cultivar as a base and is Chiyonoen's original blend. The Yamakiri is well-balanced in aroma and deep taste. It is a recommended blend from the Harashima family and is their most popular sencha to enjoy in the household.

- Tips for a Pleasant Tea Drinking Experience
- Pour boiling water into a teacup or cup, leave it for about 2 minutes to cool to around 79 °C/158F, and then transfer it to a kyusu (Japanese tea pot). Steep for 60 to 90 seconds and it is ready to drink! Pour up to the last drop as the last drops are where the umami resides.
