Premium Kamikatsu Awa Bancha -SAYAMAKAORI-

Premium Awa Bancha is made by growing Sayama Kaori, a representative variety of Sayama tea, in the great outdoors of Kamikatsu Town, Tokushima Prefecture, over a period of about seven years. This tea is highly rare, with production volume of only about 15% of the native variety.

It has a rich aroma and a deep, solid flavor. It also has a milder acidity than existing bancha tea.

Kamikatsu Awabancha is a rare tea that is unique in the world, made by boiling organically grown tea leaves, soaking them in barrels, and fermenting them with lactic acid bacteria. This unique manufacturing method using lactic acid bacteria fermentation gives it a "refreshing sourness."

Since it contains very little caffeine, it can be consumed by anyone, from pregnant women and babies to the elderly. It is also said to be good for improving bowel movements and relieving stuffy noses.
