Give the gift of Japanese tea with this curated set, which includes two lidded tea cups and a green tea from Ippodo, a family-run Japanese tea company based in Kyoto.
Ippodo Unro Sencha
A light and crisp sencha, a green tea produced by steaming, rolling, and drying tea leaves, then infusing the whole leaves in hot water. This variety has a slight sweetness balanced by gentle bitterness and astringency. Grown in hilly areas with stark temperature differences, it develops a depth of flavour and a refreshing fragrance.
Hakusan Porcelain Teacups with Lids
These porcelain teacups are produced in the small town of Hasami in Nagasaki Prefecture, home to Hasami ware, a style of porcelain with a continuous history of over 400 years. Teacups with lids are designed for formal occasions and are ideal for serving tea to guests.
