Daikoku

Named after the Japanese god of wealth and prosperity, this excellent green tea from Japan's renowned Kagoshima region is the perfect match for those seeking a high-quality kabusecha for every day without having to raid their college funds. The equably shaped, medium-length leaves produce an astonishingly full-bodied liquor with subtle notes of nori seaweed – a mark of any good kabusecha. Bright, green, and shot through with fine, pine-green leaf particles, Daikoku is sure to delight with its hint of sweetness and delicate astringency. A treasure chest of flavors, the cup even yields surprising notes of rich tomato when brewed at lower temperatures.
