Kabusecha

Description Kabusecha Green Tea, Loose Leaf  Kabusecha is grown in the shade under fine mesh nets (kabuse) similar to Gyokuro and is machine harvested like Sencha. These superb green tea leaves are very fragrant in the first opened package and have a very complex taste that will appeal to green tea lovers. When warm it is full-flavored, mildly astringent, and slightly strong. But as the liquid cools floral hints appear and the astringency lessens considerably. The second infusion offers an interesting earthiness. Kabusecha is a rewarding Japanese green tea.
