“Tokojou” means “best” and this full-bodied and flavoursome shaded tea from the Morimotos certainly deserves the title! A blend of leaves from the cultivars Oku Midori and Minami Sayaka that had been deprived of sunlight for about two weeks prior to harvesting, this tea has a large ratio of buds and tips to leaves and is therefore great for early morning or as an afternoon pick-me-up.
If you like the Morimoto’s “standard” Kabusecha then you will love their Organic Morimoto Tokujou Kabusecha! Harvested in late April and processed with much care, the leaves used to make this tea come from a combination of the cultivars Oku Midori and Minami Sayaka. After shading with dark nets for about two weeks before the harvest the leaves had developed an intense sweetness, lots of umami and a beautiful deep green colour. Sweet and fruity, this tea is delicious served warm or made as a cold-brew (Midzudashi).
