At a Glance
Harvested in early spring from the tea fields of Shizuoka, Hatsuzumi is a deep-steamed sencha made from young tea leaves picked at their peak. The deep steaming process preserves the tea’s vivid green color and fresh, full-bodied flavor, resulting in a rich and refreshing brew.
The name Hatsuzumi (はつづみ) , meaning “first picking,” reflects the tea’s refreshing character. With notes of fresh greens, sweet grass, and a gentle umami finish, each sip feels crisp, clean, and quietly energizing. Naturally rich in catechins and moderate in caffeine, Sencha Hatsuzumi is a daily staple that supports focus and well-being, perfect for morning rituals or a mindful afternoon reset.

I've been drinking this tea for months (purchased on Amazon before this) and it has become a part of my daily routine. It is the perfect pick me up in the morning or during lunch! I am subscribed to 2 refills a month for my husband and I!
Smooth fresh
I love the flavor of this tea. It is the highest quality I have seen available especially in the US. It also happens to be the best value! Highly recommend.
I wanted an authentic, organic sencha from Japan. This has a mellow and smooth flavor.
Nice brilliant color and aroma. My wife and I love it.
