小原春香園 知覧茶 80g | 創業明治八年 老舗茶舗 茶一筋40年店主厳選 鹿児島県知覧産深蒸し茶 大阪の水に合わせた特別火入れ焙煎 プレゼント ギフト 日本のお茶

This "Chiran Tea (Fukamushi/Deep-Steamed Tea) 80g" is a supreme masterpiece recommended with confidence by the owner of "Ohara Harukaen," a long-established tea shop founded in 1875, who boasts 40 years of dedication to tea.

Every year, the owner personally visits Chiran in Kagoshima Prefecture to purchase only tea leaves that meet his high standards. Furthermore, we send "Osaka water (Kansai water quality)" to the production site, meticulously refining everything from leaf selection to the firing and roasting process to ensure the tea draws out the most delicious dashi-like broth and umami when brewed with that specific water.

Carefully deep-steamed, these premium tea leaves are harvested in Chiran, Kagoshima, an area blessed with a warm climate and rich nature. The tea is characterized by the vibrant, deep, and beautiful dark green liquor unique to deep-steamed tea, a mellow umami flavor with little astringency, and a rich, fragrant aroma that rises with the steam.

When brewed in a teapot, a luxurious sweetness and depth spread the moment you pour the hot water, making it a supreme choice not only for your daily cup but also for hospitality when entertaining important guests.

The elegant 80g package protects the delicate quality of the tea from light and moisture, keeping the freshly made aroma and delicious flavor intact for a long time. It is a perfect item for a high-quality tea time at home, as well as a thoughtful gift for tea lovers, a souvenir, or a quintessential Japanese gift.

Recommended Preparation Methods
・【Brewing in a teapot】
1. Put the appropriate amount of tea leaves into the teapot (approx. 3g for 1 person, 6–8g for 3 people).
2. Pour in hot water that has been cooled to about 80°C (approx. 80mL per person).
3. Let it sit quietly for about 30–40 seconds, then pour evenly into teacups, rotating between them. (Pouring until the very last drop ensures the second brew will also be delicious.)
・【Cold Brew】
Add tea leaves (8–10g) and cold water (1L) to a bottle and let it steep in the refrigerator for 2–3 hours. This results in an exquisite cold Chiran tea with suppressed astringency, emphasizing sweetness and a vibrant, deep green color.
