RYOKOCHICHA-MEICHA
« A tea blessed by the Gods »
Between sea and sky, at the crossroads of fertile valleys framed by spectacular panoramas bathed by the Okitsu river flowing down the mountain from the north, this green tea « Meicha » is produced exclusively for Mariage Frères – extremely rare. The soft morning drizzle and the thick evening mists infuse the air with a humidity that cloaks the tea plants in a protective veil that protects them from the harsh rays of the sun. The most delicate saveurs are thus preserved and magnified. The extremely attentive hand-picking followed by a perfectly mastered crafting of the leaves impart an extraordinary taste to this harvest.
This green tea from Japan is packaged in a 50g under vacuum pochette.
Description
Dried leaves : Bright, pure green. This rare cru introduces a bevy of aromas – airy like silver tilleul honey and suave like delicate mangosteen.
Infused leaves : Absinthe-green in colour from which warm, reassuring aromas escape. The wet moss of a bamboo forest exhales its first fragrances, complimented by a gentle, mingling caress of truffle. The flowery-sweet tone is enhanced by an enveloping note of datura.
Liquor : Topaz yellow. The palate is caressed by a pleasant aroma of candied angelica while a delightful note of juicy white currant sparkles until the last drop.
Sumptuously balanced, the taste of sensuality.
