  Asatsuyu Sencha
 
A unique single bush tea with a distinct flavor resembling the heartier fukamushi senchas. The aroma of the brewed tea leaves was mouthwatering, savory with a toasted sesame note. The beautiful sea green brew was robust. Rich, nutty flavors and a strong umami component gave us an almost meaty broth. Some vegetal sharpness rounded out the flavor profile. The sweetness arrived fashionably late giving us a delightful finish. Dae noted, one could almost make a meal out of this tea.
