Tenko, "gift from heaven", a half shaded green tea from the early first picking at the end of April has, like Tenbu Fuka and Soshun, this special "recurring taste" that stays on the tongue for a long time. Tenko is jade green in the cup. A rich, fruity-fresh fragrance and a characterful, mild and nut-like taste are characteristic of this tea. 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".
Fukamushicha
Like many KEIKO teas, this is an intensively steamed tea (Fukamushi-cha, 100 - 120 seconds steaming time). Due to the gentle steaming process, the leaf pores open and the extracts from the tea leaf reach the water more easily and quickly. This can be recognized by the deep green tea colour in the cup and the yield of the tea - with top qualities up to 4 infusions are possible!
Cold Brew
Intensively steamed early pickings are also particularly suitable for cold infusions (Mizudashi or Cold Brew). By infusing the leaves with cold water you will get an intensive and refreshing tea after only a few minutes. Since the bitter substances do not dissolve as strongly in cold water, the sweet aromas of the Kabusecha are especially noticeable.
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.

Bewertung Tenko
Tenko- meine Stille Freude frühmorgens. Den ersten Aufguss erlebe ich wie den jungen Frühling. Der zweite dehnt meine Zeit gemächlich aus. Der dritte ist wie ein guter Freund.
Intensiver Halbschatten-Tee mit komplexen Aromen und unvergleichlichem Duft, etwas empfindlich auf Wassertemperatur. Relativ schwebstoffreiche Tasse, feinere Filterung über Zusatzsieb ergibt klarere Tasse bei leichter Geschmackverminderung. Insgesamt: ein
