Australian Shincha

This Australian Shincha is a first-flush green tea made from young Japanese tea cultivars grown in Australia. Harvested early in the season when the first new leaves emerge, Shincha captures the vibrant energy of spring growth. Carefully processed to preserve freshness, this tea reflects both the character of its cultivars and the clarity unique to Australian terroir.

The liquor is pale and luminous, with vibrant aromatics reminiscent of freshly cut greens and tender spring herbs. On the palate, this Shincha is clean and lively, offering brisk, green notes balanced by a soft sweetness and an invigorating finish.

This tea rewards gentle brewing and is expressive without heaviness, making it an excellent choice for thoughtful morning routines or a refreshing lift anytime.

Pairs beautifully with light breakfasts, fresh fruit, and simple pastries — its bright, clean character lifts the senses without overwhelming.
