Description:
This is a green tea made with the pan firing method (not the steam one).
Only a few locations in Kyushu still produce this type of tea, resulting in a lovely aroma and a lighter taste.
This particular version is baked using a 3-step method, giving it notes that are lightly rounded and toasted.
 
 
Preparation:
4g (0.14oz) of leaves per serving
80ml of water at 70-80°C (158-176°F) per serving
First brew: 60 seconds

Cold brew: 10g of leaves for 1L of cold water. Brew for 12-15 hours in the fridge at 5°C. Filter the liquor in another bottle and keep it in the fridge. You may re-brew the spent leaves a second time as you like.
