Keiko Japanese Organic Green Tea
Unlike black tea, green tea is not
fermented. Normally, the enzymes contained in freshly plucked tea
leaves cause fermentation to automatically set in: to avoid this,
green tea leaves are briefly dried with heat immediately after plucking.
Premium
organic japanese tea from Kagoshima |

Keiko green tea is shade-grown
under special nets, called Kabuse. The nets let just half of the sun's
rays through. Growing semi-shaded comes close to the natural light
conditions of the wild tea bush. The shaded tea develops more active
substances and a distinct, fresh, highly aromatic scent. |
