Deep, yet light. Full, yet never lingering.

NIJYU-NI (22) opens with a clean green note and a gentle sweetness, then layers fruit-like aromatics over rich umami before settling into a calm, cooling finish. It never speaks loudly. It shifts, and reveals itself little by little.

Tasting notes

A clean green opening and gentle sweetness that deepens into fruit-like aromatics and layered umami. A calm, cooling finish with a silky mouthfeel. Emerald in colour, with a refined, inviting aroma. Equally striking hot or cold: with water alone, its clarity shines.

Why it stands apart

Single-origin leaves from Kagoshima, shade-grown for an extended period to build amino acids and sweetness, then stone-milled in small batches to protect the delicate aromatics. USDA organic certified.

How to prepare

  • Usucha (thin tea): sift 2 g (1 tsp) into a warmed bowl, add 70 ml of water at 80°C and whisk briskly in an “M” motion for 15–20 seconds, until a fine froth forms.
  • Cold: sift 2 g into a glass, add 70 ml of cold or room-temperature water and whisk gently. Served cold, its clarity comes into focus.
