Let me tell you the story of Cherry Sencha, a tea born from the artistry and reverence of Japan’s tea farmers. It begins in the verdant tea fields of Shizuoka, where rolling mists embrace the delicate leaves as they grow under the nurturing hands of experienced farmers. These artisans have mastered the craft of cultivating sencha, the quintessential Japanese green tea, known for its vibrant green hue and refreshing grassy notes.
One spring, as the cherry blossoms painted the landscape with soft pink petals, a tea farmer was struck by the beauty of nature’s fleeting moments. Inspired by the sakura season and its celebration of impermanence, the farmer decided to capture this essence in tea. After handpicking the finest sencha leaves during the early days of the season, they blended the tea with dried cherry blossoms harvested from nearby groves. The blossoms were carefully dried to preserve their delicate aroma, ensuring they would mingle harmoniously with the tea's verdant notes.
The result was a tea that speaks of spring—each leaf and petal a story of nature’s fleeting yet unforgettable beauty. Cherry Sencha was born, not merely as a drink but as an experience, connecting those who sip it to the timeless charm of Japan’s sakura season.
