Satsuma
1 Year Anniversary Limited-Release
Hand-picked in May from the volcanic slopes of southern Kyushu, where the first warm rains of spring draw out the leaf's deepest green. Steamed within hours of plucking — a brisk, sea-bright cup that tastes of the season itself, true to its origin.
Growing Region:
At the southern tip of Kyushu, where Japan finally runs out of land, Kagoshima sits across a quiet bay from Sakurajima — one of the country's most active volcanoes, drifting mineral-rich ash into the tea fields on most days of the year. The region was known for centuries as Satsuma Province, a name still carried by its sweet mandarins, its distinctive pottery, and the tea grown on these volcanic slopes.
Warm Pacific air, generous rain, and the earliest spring in Japan bring Kagoshima's first harvest weeks before anywhere else — sometimes as early as late April. The leaves arrive young, sweet, and full of the umami that defines a great sencha: vivid green in the cup, marine on the nose, with the natural sweetness of a leaf picked at the first warmth of spring.
