Setoya Midori is a premium first-flush Japanese green tea grown in the mountain tea gardens of the Setoya Valley in Fujieda, Shizuoka. Produced from the rare Setoya Midori cultivar, it is celebrated for its exceptional sweetness, rich umami and beautifully rounded mouthfeel, offering a refined expression of one of Japan's most distinctive regional cultivars.
Our Setoya Midori is carefully crafted to preserve the freshness of the early spring harvest, resulting in a tea that is vibrant yet deeply comforting. Delicate vegetal notes are balanced by buttery sweetness and a lingering savoury finish, making it a tea that rewards slow, attentive brewing.
In the cup, it is elegant and layered, revealing notes of sweet peas, steamed greens, fresh herbs and butter, with a long-lasting umami that gently lingers after each sip.
