Shincha - the ‘new tea’ heralds the start of the tea year every spring. The first tea from the fine, particularly aromatic leaf tips, which are harvested in the subtropical climate of Kagoshima as early as mid-April. In order to capture the fresh flavour in the best possible way, shincha is dried a little lighter than usual for sencha in the final processing stage, giving the teas a special freshness that seems particularly pronounced in Shincha Yume.-
70% Yume Kaori from the KEIKO organic farm in Kawanabe (Chiran)
- 30% Sae Midori from the Komaki brothers (Minami-Satsuma)
- Kabusecha is a green tea produced by shading the tea plants for a period of 7-10 days before harvesting, which results in a high content of chlorophyll and other active ingredients and a low level of bitterness. Their characteristic ‘shade flavour’ is called ‘ooika’. Early harvests such as Shincha Yume also have a particularly high theanine content, which is noticeable in the sweet flavour.

Green tea preparation instructions
Preparation
Prepare a cup for each person that has a capacity of 80 to 100 ml. Allow the boiled water to cool to 80° to 60°C, depending on the type. To do this, either put the water in a cooling bowl or pour it directly into the cups to cool, which will also preheat them.
Dosage
Put a level teaspoon of tea per person into a clay pot. Pour one cup of water per person over the leaves. Allow the first infusion to brew for a maximum of 30 to 60 seconds.
Pouring
If the tea is to be served to several people, first pour a little tea into each cup and then fill the cups in reverse order. This way, the tea will be the same strength in all cups. The pouring movements gradually give the tea the right green color. Pour out the last "golden" drops and prevent the tea from brewing any further.
Enjoy
Serve the tea fresh. In Japan, a small sweet treat is often served with unsweetened tea. For further infusions, pour water over the tea leaves again. Only allow to steep for about 15 seconds, as the leaf has already swollen and the ingredients are released more quickly. Distribute quickly all around.

Traumhaft gut
Ich freue mich jedes Jahr wieder auf den Shincha Yume. Auch dieses Jahr mit neuem Blend wieder ein Genuß. Am besten frühmorgens in aller Stille genießen.

Ausnahmetee
Der Shincha Yume ist ein Ausnahmetee und entspricht der Shop-Beschreibung vollkommen. Aus meiner Sicht beträgt die optimale Aufgusstemperatur 60 Grad bei halbminütiger Ziehzeit. Dieser Shincha verdient eine stille Umgebung und friedliche Atmosphäre, in der er seine erhebende und stärkende Wirkung entfalten kann.
