2025 first harvest

Isami is a remarkably sweet competition grade sencha that hails from the misty vales of Okuyame. The keyword for Isami is relaxation: with Kakuda Seicha’s signature high levels of theanine and a smooth mouthfeel, you’ll want to sink into a comfortable chair as you sip.

The method used to cultivate their tea boasts a theanine concentration of a whopping 2%, comparable to high-grade matcha. 

Kakuda san recommends pairing this tea with a traditional Japanese red bean jelly or an equivalent, slightly sweet and refreshing treat.

Isami is a combination of Yabukita, picked in its earliest stage, and the rarer variety Ooiwase, creates a strong sweet taste that is accompanied by the aroma of young leaves.

Notes of blackcurrant and cassis spread over the tongue during the first brew, and the second remains unblemished, a sippable harmony of umami and light fruit. There is absolutely no bitterness to be found.
