Description

Shincha: 新茶は、一番茶（季節の初収穫）から作られた日本の緑茶の一種です。それは繊細で新鮮な風味を持ち、その品質で高く評価されています。春が始まってから88日後の「ハチジュハチヤ」の日に収穫されたお茶は、古代から長寿と幸運の象徴として大切にされてきました。それは永遠の若さと長寿の祝福に関連した貴重な新しいお茶と考えられています。Shincha is a type of Japanese green tea made from the season’s first harvest. It has a delicate, fresh flavor and is highly prized for its quality. The tea harvested on the “Hachiju-Hachiya” day, which is eighty-eight days after the beginning of spring, has been cherished as a symbol of longevity and good fortune since ancient times. It is considered a precious new tea associated with the blessings of eternal youth and longevity.

“天雫” (Amashizuku) refers to the blessings from the sky, encompassing the natural forces and gifts that contribute to the cultivation of tea. The term “天” (Ten) symbolizes nature and the sun, which sculpt the soil and terrain ideal for tea cultivation, creating the perfect conditions for tea through rain and morning mist. “雫” (Shizuku) signifies the blessings from the heavens, including rain and morning mist, representing the nourishment that comes from above.

The Amashizuku series from Yame Tea, specifically the Hoshino Tea from Yame, Fukuoka, is the result of these natural forces and blessings, combined with the dedication of producers to improve quality and their skilled techniques.

”天雫”(あましずく）とは？

”天”は自然と太陽を意味し、その力により茶栽培に適した土壌や地形を造形し、雨や朝霧といった最も茶に適した条件をもつくりあげた。その自然の力を表しています。

”雫”は雨や朝霧などを含め、天からの恵みを意味しています。

その自然の力と自然の恵みと生産者の品質向上の気持ちと技術により、生まれたのが「福岡の八女茶・八女の星野茶」の”天雫”のシリーズです。

✅ 緑茶の成分「エピガロカテキンガレート(EGCg)」は、摂氏80度を超える高温で抽出されやすく、旨み成分の「アミノ酸」は低温で抽出されやすくなります。「カフェイン」は、低温でお茶を淹れることで抽出を減らすことができます。The green tea component “epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg)” is easily extracted at high temperatures above 80 degrees Celsius, while the umami component “amino acids” is easily extracted at low temperatures. “Caffeine” can be reduced by brewing tea at low temperatures.

✅ 保存方法 高温多湿を避け、できれば冷蔵庫に保管し、移り香にご注意ください。Storage method: Avoid high temperature and humidity, and if possible, store in the refrigerator, and be careful not to transfer the fragrance.

✅「向抹茶」は、600年間、代々その技術を引き継がれてきた熟練の茶農家が生産する高品質の「八女茶」をお届けしております。“Mukoh Matcha” prides itself on delivering high-quality green tea and matcha sourced exclusively from Fukuoka, Japan’s lush, water-rich Yame region, where tea production has been passed down through generations of expert farmers over the past 600 years.

✅ [八女茶（やめちゃ）]は、日本茶の総生産量の約3%しか生産量のない希少なお茶で、福岡県で生産されるお茶のブランドです。[Yamecha / Yame tea] Yame Tea is a brand of tea produced in Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan. It is a rare and highly esteemed brand, accounting for only about 3% of the total Japanese tea production.

✅100% 福岡の八女茶 [Authentic, Rare, High-Quality, Valuable 100% Yame Matcha Green Tea Powder] made from Yame green tea Leaves. Yame tea is known for its high quality and is often considered one of the top green teas in Japan.

✅抹茶 / 緑茶 は、冷蔵庫に入れておけば、１年〜２年でも大丈夫です。冷凍庫に入れておけば長い間鮮度が保たれます。ただ、冷暗所に置いておく場合は、夏の場合、３〜４ヶ月で色も味も変わってしまいます。また、冷蔵庫に入れておかれた場合でも、抹茶/ 緑茶は香が移りやすいですので、臭いのきついものと一緒に保管されておくと、匂いが移ってしまうのでご注意ください。こういった理由により、ご購入頂いた抹茶 / 緑茶に記載しております”賞味期限”は、冷暗所で保存された場合の目安となっております。

✅Matcha / Green tea is fine for one or two years if kept in the refrigerator. If kept in the freezer, its freshness will be preserved indefinitely. However, if left in a cool, dark place, the color and taste will change in 3-4 months, especially in the summer. Also, even if kept in the refrigerator, Matcha / Green tea easily absorbs scents, so please be careful not to store it with strong-smelling items as the smell may transfer. Therefore, the expiration date is just a “guide” when stored in a cool, dark place.
