Oxidised Kōshun Sencha from Hoshino village, Yame, Fukuoka, Japan

This experimental Sencha is a rare, lightly oxidised Japanese sencha that reveals rounder and deeper aromas similar to withered Senchas. Produced in Hoshino by our award-winning Gyokuro farmer it is made from the unique Koshun cultivar. But this version evokes very interesting tasting notes of unripe pear, beans and rich flowers. It has a strong mouthfeel reminiscent of certain high-mountain oolongs. It is a unique, warm and slightly sour yet mouthwatering tea, a crossover of Japanese tradition and unexpected aromas.

Origin: Hoshino village, Yame, Fukuoka, Japan

Cultivar: Kōshun

50g – Change

Marcel Karcher, Founder, Munich

For over 15 years I have been collecting ceramics and drinking tea very seriously. Now I am funnelling all of that experience into finding and curating great wares and tea.

We only sell what I personally like a lot, and that includes the tea I drink myself every day. I choose every maker. I taste every tea before it goes into the shop. I travel to Japan and China to meet the people who make what we sell.

Until now the entire endeavour is in my hands from end to end: sourcing, logistics, photography, education, labelling and packing your parcels.
