The ultimate gift for Japanese tea enthusiasts.
Experience the fleeting beauty of Shincha—the year’s very first harvest with this premium set featuring four distinct Sencha varieties from Japan’s most renowned growing regions.
Plucked exactly 88 days after the Spring equinox (Risshun), these young leaves capture the gentle vitality of the spring sun. In Japan, drinking Shincha is considered a "good omen," traditionally believed to promote longevity, health, and happiness for the year ahead.
Travel through the terroir of Japan from the comfort of your home.

The Regional Collection
Each bag contains 40g of premium loose-leaf tea, color-coded by region:
-
Shizuoka Shincha (Green Bag): Grown in the shadow of Mt. Fuji. This classic tea offers a mellow body, a crisp finish, and a vibrant deep green hue.
-
Kagoshima Shincha (Pink Bag): From the volcanic soils of Kyushu Island. Bathed in the southern sun, this variety delivers a rich, deep umami flavor and unmatched freshness.
-
Uji Shincha (Purple Bag): From the historic tea fields of Kyoto. These delicately prepared leaves release an elegant, floral fragrance and a sophisticated, premium taste.
-
Yame Shincha (Blue Bag): Harvested in Fukuoka Prefecture. Known for its exceptional sweetness, this tea offers a well-rounded umami profile and a color reminiscent of fresh spring meadows.
How to Brew
To fully appreciate the delicate aromas of the first harvest, we recommend the following:
- Tea: 3g (approx. 1 teaspoon) per cup.
- Water: 80ml at 80°C (176°F).
- Steep Time: 1 minute. Pour until the very last drop to capture the "golden drop" of flavor.
