Heritage from the Wild
Sourced from wild tea trees in the pristine Haruno region of Shizuoka, Japan, our Zairai First Flush Oolong represents a rare treasure in the tea world. This exceptional oolong harvests only the first tender leaves of spring, capturing the pure essence of Haruno's untamed terroir.
A Distinctive Character
Unlike traditional brown oolongs, this medium-roasted tea (level 5) presents with a captivating clear green hue accented by subtle brown undertones—reminiscent of fine sencha but with oolong's complex depth. The extended fermentation process unique to Haruno's tea tradition imparts a distinctive astringency that tea connoisseurs will appreciate.
Master Crafted
