To evaluate the flavor of the Shincha Asuka Chiran 2026, we look at both the aroma and how the tea interacts with the palate. Does it produce dryness, acidity, minerality, sweetness or umami? We also evaluate the texture of the tea, otherwise known as mouthfeel. Finally, for shincha sencha, we look at the fresh vegetal profile, as this is one of the defining characteristics of first harvest Japanese green tea.

100% organicky pěstováno a získáváno eticky

At Nio, we like to work closely with farmers who grow tea without pesticides or chemicals. We believe this approach not only improves the flavor of the tea, but also supports the long-term health of the tea fields. In the case of Shincha Asuka Chiran 2026, the farmer’s packaging highlights organic cultivation methods, including the use of fermented fertilizer and soil-focused farming. This helps create a healthier environment for the tea plants, while also supporting insects, flowers and biodiversity around the fields. Nio Teas Unique Organically grown sourcing process We conduct taste tests to select teas with the best flavor profiles. We communicate directly with farmers to understand how the teas are produced. We visit tea fields in person to judge the quality of the crops and the production process. We also look at the surrounding ecosystem to make sure the fields are healthy beyond the tea plants themselves.

Certifikace JAS

At Nio, we are proud to work with tea farmers who focus on organic and pesticide-free tea production. Some of our teas, including this one, are associated with the JAS label, which stands for Japanese Agriculture Standards. This certification is used in Japan to confirm that products are grown according to strict organic standards. For larger farms, we require official certification when possible. For smaller producers, we may also accept pesticide-free practices when we can verify the quality of the tea and the care taken in the fields. Our goal is to support excellent tea while maintaining a high standard for sustainability and purity.

Jak připravit čaj

The Shincha Asuka Chiran 2026 is a delicate first harvest tea, so we recommend using slightly cooler water and a short brewing time. This allows you to preserve its smooth sweetness, fresh aroma and rich umami without bringing out too much bitterness.

  • Krok 1

    Heat your water to 65 degrees Celsius, or 150 degrees Fahrenheit.

  • Krok 2

    Add 5 grams of Shincha Asuka Chiran 2026 to your kyusu teapot or tea strainer.

  • Krok 3

    Pour in 150ml of hot water and let the tea leaves brew for 45 seconds.

  • Krok 4

    After the leaves have finished brewing, pour out the tea completely and enjoy this fresh, sweet and umami-rich shincha.

  • 2. vaření

    The first infusion of Shincha Asuka Chiran 2026 is the smoothest and most aromatic, but the leaves still have more to give. For the second and third brewing, use the same water temperature and steep the leaves for around 20 seconds.

  • Studená voda

    Cold brewing is also a great way to enjoy this first harvest tea. Add 5 grams of leaves to a pitcher or cup, pour in 150ml of room temperature or chilled water and let the tea sit for 3 hours. This method brings out even more sweetness and reduces the bitterness, creating a smooth and refreshing shincha.

Nezbytné čajové nádobí

To prepare the best cup of Shincha Asuka Chiran 2026, we recommend using a kyusu teapot. A fukamushi-style kyusu with a circular metal strainer works especially well for Japanese green teas because it allows the tea to pour smoothly without letting the leaves clog the spout. If the leaves stay in contact with the water too long, the tea can overbrew and become bitter. Alternative without teaware If you don’t have a teapot at home, you can also use a tea strainer. This will separate the leaves as you pour and stop the infusion, although the flavor may not be quite as rich as it would be in a kyusu.

Informace o farmě

This tea is produced by Mr. Nuruki, a talented tea farmer based in Chiran, Kagoshima. We discovered this shincha during our latest trip to Japan in 2026 and were immediately impressed by its sweetness, smoothness and rich umami. Mr. Nuruki works in one of the most respected tea-producing areas in southern Japan, where the warm climate, fertile soils and careful cultivation allow first harvest teas like this one to develop a vibrant and refined flavor.

Získáno v Chiran

Japonsko

As the name suggests, this tea comes from Chiran, a famous tea-producing area in Kagoshima, on the southern island of Kyushu. Chiran benefits from a warm climate, fertile soils and excellent growing conditions for Japanese green tea. This 2026 shincha was made from the first young leaves of spring, giving it a fresher, more vibrant and more nutrient-rich profile than later harvest teas.

Kultivar a odrůda čajovníku

The Shincha Asuka Chiran 2026 is made from a blend of four cultivars: Yabukita, Yutaka Midori, Asatsuyu and Saemidori. Each cultivar brings something different to the cup. Yabukita provides structure, Yutaka Midori adds deep green intensity, Asatsuyu contributes sweetness and Saemidori brings smooth umami and a bright color.

  • Yabukita

    Yabukita is the most widely grown tea plant variety in Japan. It produces a balanced flavor with a rich savory character and strong steamed vegetable notes.

  • Yutaka Midori

    Yutaka Midori is the second most popular tea plant variety in Japan. Its name means “abundant green” and it is known for producing deep green teas with powerful grassy and vegetal flavors.

  • Asatsuyu

    Asatsuyu is one of the sweetest cultivars used for Japanese green tea. It is sometimes called a “natural gyokuro” because it can produce a naturally smooth and sweet flavor even without long shading.

  • Saemidori

    Saemidori is a prized tea cultivar known for its bright green color, smooth sweetness and strong umami. It is often used in premium Japanese green teas because it can produce a soft, elegant flavor with very little bitterness.
