A first harvest of Gyokuro, shaded tea from Japan with a deep umami flavor
Like a fresh spring breeze wafting all the way from Japan's beautiful Kyushu Island, this rare shincha carries the subtle fragrance of the region's beloved cherry blossoms. The very first tea harvest of the year is ripe with succulent green flavor, with hints of umami and rainforest freshness.
The KŌRIDASHI method:
Japanese green teas are particularly suitable for the KŌRIDASHI method. With this very cold extraction variant, also called ice drip, the tea melts slowly over ice cubes. This brings the sweetness and umami notes to the center of the enjoyment.

Hanami Flush is named in tribute to hanami (cherry blossom appreciation) season in Japan, and 'flush' refers to the burst of fresh new leaves (called a 'flush') on the tea bushes awakening in spring. The term shincha literally means 'new tea.' Shincha is characterized by its fresh aroma and sweetness,which in P & T´s Hanami Flush case, also comes from a light steam method called asamushi. Besides the fresh aroma of the young leaves, shincha is characterized by its relatively low content of bitter catechin and caffeine, and high content of amino acid.
