Japanese tea growers call this tea, JUKI, which means "Quiet Authority" alluding to its humble success. It is a masterpiece of south-island Japan, as the only organic Sencha tea in the world to receive a perfect score at Germany’s annual tea competition. Organically grown and auspiciously prepared by Irie Toshiro, production is limited to less than 50 kilograms per year. His blue ribbon sencha kiwami is a rare expression of Japanese balance, purity, and refinement, respective of traditional Japan. It is deeply aromatic, with notes of persimmon, fresh nori, and pine nuts; described as an intoxicating and spatial experience, with rich umami lingering on the palate, long and resonant.

JUKI organic sencha is presented in a black and gold hand-painted tea canister flourished by the tea master himself, portraying a beautiful impression of his tea trees in their winter bloom. It is a generous keepsake, and a token of the stunning experience that awaits inside. Decades of devotion to the art of organic tea cultivation and mastery of preparation make this offering one of Japan’s very finest.
