Single-cultivar Sencha from Hoshino village, Yame, Fukuoka, Japan

Produced in Hoshino by our award-winning Gyokuro farmer, this Sencha is made from the aroma cultivar Kōshun. Kōshun was bred in Shizuoka from two aroma carriers and around 90% of it is still grown there, so a Kōshun from Yame is a rare chance to taste this cultivar outside its home prefecture. It is also the unoxidised counterpart to our Experimental Kōshun Sencha, which means you can compare the same plant with and without withering, side by side.

Origin: Hoshino village, Yame, Fukuoka, Japan

Cultivar: Koshun / 香駿 (Kurasawa X Kanayamidori)

Steaming: medium steamed / Chūmushi (approx. 60 seconds)

Harvest: May 2026

Taste: cherry, almond, herbal

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.
