Origin: JAPAN

Okumidori is a premium Japanese green tea cultivar prized for its vibrant green color, smooth taste, and balanced umami. Grown in carefully tended tea gardens, this variety thrives in regions like Kyoto, Shizuoka, and Kagoshima, where the climate and soil conditions enhance its delicate yet complex flavor. Okumidori leaves are often shaded before harvest to deepen their sweetness and create a rich, full-bodied brew with minimal bitterness. The result is a beautifully fragrant tea with notes of fresh grass, steamed vegetables, and a gentle creaminess that lingers on the palate.

Celebrated for its versatility, Okumidori is commonly used in both sencha and gyokuro, offering tea enthusiasts a refined and refreshing experience. Its high amino acid content makes it an excellent choice for those who appreciate a smooth, umami-forward green tea. Brewed at a lower temperature, it reveals its full depth of flavor while maintaining its signature vibrant green liquor.
