We carefully select the tea leaves from the new spring buds and steam them for an extended period at a specially high temperature. This process maximizes the umami and mellow flavor dormant within the tea leaves. Skilled tea artisans then bring out the aroma and fragrance. Through a traditional two-stage firing process, the finished tea is meticulously inspected with the eyes, nose, and tongue. Finally, the deep-steamed Kakegawa tea, "Kakegawa no Homare," is completed, having fully extracted the deliciousness from the tea leaves.
Please remember that the origin of the tea leaves and the tea shop that finishes them are crucial factors when choosing tea. The tea leaves for "Kakegawa no Homare" are picked only from the new buds that grew in the spring of that year. Please enjoy the umami of the new buds that overflows from these young leaves.
"Kakegawa no Homare" has been highly popular since its release at the end of April, with some customers purchasing their entire year's supply in the spring. It is perfect for personal enjoyment, as well as for gifts, sharing with others, and seasonal presents.
