Underneath sits a soft roasted note from the final fire and an umami that fills the mouth and holds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrew a heaped teaspoon, about 2.5 g, in 180 ml of water at 80 degrees for one to three minutes. Because the leaf is fine, use a fine strainer or the Scoop and Twist infuser. It is the sencha for people who like it strong and direct, and it cold brews into a rich, savoury glass. Caffeine is low, well under a coffee.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFukamushi was developed in Shizuoka in the 1960s for exactly this flat, sunny growing area, where the leaf is thicker and benefits from a longer steam. We source it direct from one grower we keep to ourselves. One ingredient, nothing added.

There is a lively astringency, clean rather than drying, and a clear sweetness underneath, like fresh spring leaf with a sweet lift. The first steep is the sweetest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrew a heaped teaspoon, about 2.5 g, in 180 ml of water at 80 degrees for one to three minutes. Brew cooler, around 70 degrees, for a softer, sweeter cup. It is a clean morning tea and the best of our range for cold brew in summer. Caffeine is medium, less than coffee, enough to notice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHaruno sits in the Hamamatsu hills where cooler nights slow the leaf and build sweetness, and asamushi, the traditional short steam, is the style that shows that leaf most clearly.
