Coming from well-known tea master and farmer Uejima Noriyasu in the famous tea producing region Wazuka Village, Kyoto Prefecture, this tea is a single cultivar (single estate & single field) sencha available only at the start of the year in spring. It is considered shincha, meaning "new tea", for a few months following harvest, and being sold on Yunomi.life while supplies last.
