Description
Japanese whisky has grown in popularity, so we were excited when this tea was offered to us. As whisky fans, we couldn't resist it! Japanese Whisky is a rare tea that comes to us from Shimado, located in Shizuoka Prefecture in Japan. It's made using the same cultivar as most Senchas, Yabukita. It's comprised of a blend of 1st and 2nd flush teas, but the farmers only have time to finish the smoking process in the summer or early autumn when prime tea production has slowed. During its extensive processing, it is finished with an 8-hour smoking over wood chips made from Japanese whisky barrels.
