Ocha & Co. Organic Black Tea – Japanese First Harvest Japanese Loose Leaf - Benifuuki Cultivar with Zero Bitterness – Smooth, Mild & Fragrant Premium Tea, 100g/3.5oz

Description:

About this item:

  • LOOSE LEAF BLACK TEA: While Japan is famous for green tea, we also supply a small amount of organic black loose leaf tea. This premium tea contains hand picked young leaves from a Benifuuki cultivar.
  • SMOOTH & FRAGRANT: With a very different taste to the loose leaf black teas available in the UK, Benifuuki black tea has a smooth, mild flavor with zero bitterness and a fragrant aroma.
  • JAPANESE ORGANIC TEA: This organic green tea is grown in an award-winning mountainous plantation in Shizuoka, where the perfect climatic conditions exist for organic Japanese tea cultivation.
  • VACUUM-SEALED FRESHNESS: Small batches of our black tea leaves are ordered weekly to ensure a long shelf-life, and the organic tea has also been vacuum-sealed to retain optimal freshness.
  • OCHA & CO: Our tea growers work in harmony with one of the top blenders in the country to produce the finest organic green and black teas, so we can offer a variety of Japanese teas for different tastes, moods or occasions

    • Premium Organic Japanese Loose Leaf Black Tea

    Japan is famous for its green tea but there is also a small production of Japanese black tea too, that is virtually unheard of in the west. We supply a limited amount of a black loose leaf tea made from a Benifuuk cultivar, and this organic tea comes from the same production as our organic green teas. It's black but totally different from the premium black teas that you are most probably used to. Made from hand picked young leaves, this Benifuuki black tea is aromatic, mild and incredibly smooth, with zero bitterness.

    Brew the perfect cup of Japanese black tea – hot or cold

    Temperature, amount of leaf, type of water and steep time are important factors you need to get right to make the perfect cup of hot Japanese black tea. We recommend: Tea: 4g (0.14 oz. = 1 heaped tsp.), Water: 1 cup (200ml), Temperature: (95 - 100°C), Steep Time: 120 seconds. Black loose leaf tea can also be brewed cold. Add 6-7g of loose leaf tea to a glass pitcher and fill up with 500-1000ml water. Refrigerate for 6-8 hours, strain the leaves then drink or store in the fridge for later.

    Ocha & Co. Organic Tea

    Our JAS organic tea plantations are found in a hillside region of Japan blessed with clear water, the perfect temperatures, ample natural shade, and mineral-rich soil. Our Japanese teas are prepared in small batches by the Japanese Tea Association’s top certified tea instructor and the winner of Japan's 56th National Tea Tasting competition.

    Directions

    Brewing Instructions: Use 4g (0.14 oz.) of tea leaves for 200ml water at a temperature between 95 - 100°C 120 seconds. For cold brew, add 6-7g loose leaf to glass pitcher, fill up with 500-1000ml water, refrigerate 6-8 hours, strain the leaves, and store in fridge later.

    Tasty black tea

Highly recommended. It is a bit pricy though.

    Very delicate falvor

    C.d. · 23 August 2024

    I'm very impressed with this black tea. Not like any you have ever had before. It is distinct in its own way. Make it stronger than you normally do as the flavor is very smooth and delicate. Do not add milk as it will render the tea almost completely tasteless. I added honey and it was good. Smooth, silky, nose feel of a touch of sweetness, no astringent, or bitter flavors at all. Good for what it is though not an English breakfast which is my preferred black tea, but I think if you try it you will like it. Also the packaging is subtle, simple, and pretty like the tea.

    Worth the money

    I have always been a fan of English and Indian black teas. I lived in Japan for many years and also liked their Oolong teas. So, when I discovered that this 'new' black teas was being produced in Japan, I just had to try it....knowing that any tea produced in Japan would have to be good.This is not your usual black tea. If you can sense the fermented factor in it, and like it, then this is for you. I have never noticed such a strongly fermented flavor in any other tea, before.I brew it strong and add almost 6 oz. of milk and a teaspoon of honey. So sublimely satisfying...

    Fourth time for Ocha & Company Organic Black Tea/Non-toxic/Lovely taste

    C. · 12 August 2022

    Ocha & Company Organic Black TeaSearch for a Black Tea grown on non-toxic (no heavy metals) soil led to Ocha & Company, way back in 2020. I keep a supply in my pantry, for myself and for the occasional tea drinking guest. I like to watch out for the health of my friends, and I am all right with serving Ocha & Company Tea, from Japan.Purchaser should not expect a super-strong, malty tea like Harney & Sons or Twinings. This Japanese tea has its own strength, and even an over-steep of five or more minutes will never produce a hefty, mahogany-colored, English Breakfast type of tea. I buy Ocha & Company Tea because I trust this tea grower, and I know from my research, that their tea plants grow on clean (not polluted soils).. This most recent order was vac-sealed, for preservation of flavor. Something new, from this Tea Company, and very much appreciated.
