JAS Matcha BIO - Hoshino Seichaen
The JAS Matcha BIO from Hoshino Seichaen, stands out for its excellent value for money, has a strong flavor, with a delicious, yet raw aftertaste, revealing at times some rough note, but has the great virtue of slowly mellowing with the passing of seconds and minutes.
The Producer - Hoshino Seichaen
Hoshino Seichaen's plantations, also nicknamed the tea garden, are located in the Hoshi Valley, which is part of the Gyokuro Valley located in turn in Yame, Fukuoka in southern Japan. The company has been committed since the 1950s to ensuring that its plantations, cultivation and labor standards, as well as tea processing facilities stand out for efficiency and quality.
Hoshino Seichaen specializes in producing Matcha, Gyokuro and Sencha teas of the highest quality. Then again, in addition to the skill and craftsmanship of the tea brewers, there is also an incredibly vocated area for green tea cultivation to lend a not inconsiderable hand.
Making a parallel with Marukyu-Koyamaen teas, we can compare it from both a quality and price point of view to JAS Matcha Midori BIO. It can be prepared as Usucha and is also an entry level for the preparation of Koicha.
