Sencha of the Summer Sun | green tea

Obubu Tea’s Sencha of the Summer Sun embodies the bold, energizing spirit of early summer in Japan. Harvested in early July from west-facing, sun-drenched slopes in Wazuka, these tea leaves are grown without shading, allowing them to absorb the full intensity of the summer sun and warm breezes. The granite-rich soil infuses the tea with a distinct minerality and depth, giving it a robust, lively character. This sencha is crafted to deliver a refreshingly strong bitterness upfront, mellowing into a subtle sweetness that lingers like a sunlit afternoon.
