Cold infusions

The organic cultivation of fully shaded Gyokuro is an art that finds its perfection in this exclusive tea. Enjoy the velvety texture and a pristine aroma with the innocent fruity sweetness reminiscent of young sugar peas, which results from an especially high theanine content.

From the prized cultivar Sae Midori our farmers have created a real treasure: the Sae Gyokuro.

With a velvety texture, a pristine aroma and an innocent sweetness reminiscent of young sugar peas. A tea that invites you to dream.

As a seasonal tea, Sae Gyokuro is only harvested once a year and available only while stocks last.

In two stages, the tea plants are shaded for a total of 3 weeks and slightly steamed (chumushi).

We recommend three infusions at 50-60°C for this tea, the fruity aromas are particularly effective in cold infusion.

Fully shaded teas from organic cultivation are particularly rare, as the tea plants are also particularly prone to parasites in the strong shade and special diligence and experience are required for cultivation. However, the effort is rewarded with a very special, multifaceted density of aromas.

In order to preserve the precious flavours and ingredients of the tea as best as possible, we recommend to seal the bag well and store it cool and dark in the refrigerator or freezer.

Green tea preparation instructions

Grüntee Zubereitung

Preparation

Prepare a cup for each person that has a capacity of 80 to 100 ml. Allow the boiled water to cool to 80° to 60°C, depending on the type. To do this, either put the water in a cooling bowl or pour it directly into the cups to cool, which will also preheat them.

Grüntee Zubereitung

Dosage

Put a level teaspoon of tea per person into a clay pot. Pour one cup of water per person over the leaves. Allow the first infusion to brew for a maximum of 30 to 60 seconds.

Grüntee Zubereitung

Pouring

If the tea is to be served to several people, first pour a little tea into each cup and then fill the cups in reverse order. This way, the tea will be the same strength in all cups. The pouring movements gradually give the tea the right green color. Pour out the last "golden" drops and prevent the tea from brewing any further.

Grüntee Zubereitung

Enjoy

Serve the tea fresh. In Japan, a small sweet treat is often served with unsweetened tea. For further infusions, pour water over the tea leaves again. Only allow to steep for about 15 seconds, as the leaf has already swollen and the ingredients are released more quickly. Distribute quickly all around.

Shiboridashi-Kännchen, rot mit dunklen Spritzern
Shiboridashi-Kännchen werden hauptsächlich für die Zubereitung von Gyokuro Tee verwendet, aber auch andere (nicht zu feinblättrige) Tees können mit diesen Kännchen aufgegossen werden Statt einem klassischen Sieb wird das befüllte Kännchen mit dem Deckel verschlossen und der Tee über Rillen in der Tülle ausgeschenkt, während der Deckel die Blätter zurück hält.Das flache Kännchen aus rotem Ton wird von dem Künstler Hakusan in Handarbeit gefertigt und mit dunkelroten Akzenten verziert. Shiboridashi-Kännchen haben kein Sieb im eigentlichen Sinne sondern einen Ausguss mit Kerben im Ton, durch die der Tee abgegossen wird, während die Teeblätter mit dem Deckel zurückgehalten werden.Diese Kännchen eignen sich vor allem für weniger stark gedämpfte Tees mit größeren Blättern wie zum Beispiel Gyokuro.Die Füllmenge des Kännchens sollte so gewählt werden, dass der Tee komplett auf die bereitstehende(n) Tasse(n) verteilt werden kann und kein Wasser im Kännchen verbleibt. Die Blätter bleiben im Kännchen und werden dann einfach für weitere Aufgüsse erneut kurz mit Wasser überbrüht.MaßeMüllmenge 100mlFür 1-2 Personen.AbweichungenBitte beachten Sie, dass Form, Farbe und Größe der Teekeramik leicht variieren können!Insbesondere gilt dies für Kännchen wie dieses, die in Handarbeit erstellt werden.Reinigung Die Reinigung ist bei einem Shiboridashi-Kännchen denkbar einfach: den Teesatz ausklopfen und mit klarem Wasser ausspülen.

Shincha Sae Midori 2024 - Organic Japanese Green Tea
New in the KEIKO Shincha family: a sweet and aromatic Asamushi tea made from 100% Sae Midori with a silky-smooth sweetness, a full-bodied flavour with a long finish that is somewhat reminiscent of Gyokuro. Cultivation and processing Shincha - the ‘new tea’ heralds the start of the tea year every spring. The first tea from the fine, particularly aromatic leaf tips, which are harvested in the subtropical climate of Kagoshima as early as mid-April. Kabusecha is a green tea that is produced by shading the tea plants for 7-10 days before harvesting, which results in a high content of chlorophyll and other active ingredients and a low level of bitter substances. Their characteristic ‘shade flavour’ is called ‘ooika’. Early harvests such as Shincha Sae Midori also have a particularly high theanine content, which is noticeable in the sweet flavour and is particularly evident in the Sae Midori cultivar. Shincha Sae Midori is an asamushi tea, i.e. only lightly steamed. The leaves are therefore dark green, shiny and needle-shaped. The infusion is light green in the cup Preparation Due to the lower steaming, the tea extract dissolves somewhat more slowly than with intensively steamed teas - we recommend an infusion temperature of around 65°C and an infusion time of 70 seconds for the first infusion. For the second infusion, a brewing time of around 30 seconds is sufficient, after which it can be extended again. This tea also develops its wonderfully full flavour as a cold infusion after a slightly longer infusion time - the dosage can be increased depending on taste. Cultivar: 100% Sae Midori (Asamushi) from Yamaguchi-San in Satsuma-cho Storage To preserve the tea's valuable flavours and ingredients as much as possible, please close the bag tightly and store it in a cool, dark place in the fridge or freezer.

Gyokuro Kiwami - Organic Japanese Green Tea
Enjoy a harmonious aroma with the fine sweetness typical of Gyokuro, paired with a refreshing fruity spice and a long, full-bodied aftertaste. For the first time we can now offer a premium Gyokuro from the highlands of Kagoshima. The tea bushes are only harvested once a year. In two stages, the tea plants are shaded for a total of 3 weeks and slightly steamed for about 40 seconds (Futsuumushi). The infusion of the small dark green needle-shaped leaves presents itself in the cup with a green that is unusually intense for Gyokuro, especially in the second infusion, and a fresh, invigorating fragrance. We recommend three infusions at 50-60°C for this tea, the fruity aromas are particularly effective in cold infusion. Fully shaded teas from organic cultivation are particularly rare, as the tea plants are also particularly prone to parasites in the strong shade and special diligence and experience are required for cultivation. However, the effort is rewarded with a very special, multifaceted density of aromas. Storage In order to preserve the precious flavours and ingredients of the tea as best as possible, we ask you to seal the bag well and store it cool and dark - ideally in your refrigerator or freezer.

Tencha Niji - Organic Japanese Green Tea
An exciting rarity from Kagoshima. The name "Niji" ("rainbow") symbolizes the wide range of delicate aromas this Tencha has to offer. Due to the strong shading of the tea bushes before harvesting, particularly high amounts of chlorophyll, theanine and caffeine are formed in the plant. The rather bitter tannin content, however, remains low. Tencha is the preliminary stage of Matcha tea. After short steaming and drying, the leaf tissue is separated from the leaf veins in an air stream. These flake-like Tencha leaves produce an exquisite, aromatic-mild and multi-faceted infusion. Can also be used as a decorative sprinkle seasoning in fine, experimental cuisine. An ideal culmination of exquisite dishes and a taste experience of a special kind. Storage In order to preserve the precious flavours and ingredients of the tea as best as possible, we recommend to seal the bag well and store it cool and dark - ideally in your refrigerator or freezer.

Sae Tezumi 2024 - Organic Japanese Green Tea
Sae Tezumi is made from the award winning cultivar Sae Midori using only the best leaves carefully selected and picked by hand. The result is a wonderfully clear, lively tea with a fresh sweetness, a light green cup and a slight aroma of fresh pine needles in spring. The harvest by hand also entails a smaller harvest amount - so get your share now, stocks are limited! Kabusecha is a green tea for which the tea plants are shaded, thus forming a high content of chlorophyll and other active ingredients and at the same time little bitter substances. Their characteristic "shade aroma" is called "ooika". <h3>Preparation</h3> For the hot infusion of Sae Tezumi , we recommend an infusion temperature of 65°C and a brewing time of 70 seconds for the first infusion. For the second infusion, a shorter infusion time of about 30 seconds is sufficient, you can then let the last infusion steep a little longer again (70 sec) to bring out the full flavor. The Sae Tezumi is a normal steamed tea (Chumushi) and also suitable for cold infusions (Mizudashi). Infusing this tea with cold water will take a little longer than for Fukamushi tea but creates a slightly sweet, light taste and a light green colour. Simply steep the tea leaves for about 7-10 minutes. Since the bitter substances do not dissolve as strongly in cold water, the sweet aromas of the Kabusecha are especially noticeable. In order to preserve the precious flavours and ingredients of the tea as best as possible, we recommend to seal the bag well and store it in a cool and dark place in the refrigerator or freezer.
