SPS Cold-brew Shincha tea Supreme Bio with Matcha Premium Bio

(Sencha of the first picking 2021)

The best of two top quality organic teas in one tea bag.

The fine hoar frost that forms on the Sencha leaves in the mild winter gives it robustness, while the radiant winter sun typical of Japan conjures up a real powerhouse from the cultivar. Since our SPS COLD-BREW SHINCHA TEA SUPREME BIO comes from the first annual picking, it has a native freshness and offers the unadulterated invigorating experience of a cold water infusion. The reduction of the bitter substances catechins and caffeine in favor of theanine gives the umami its subtle sweetness.

Cold-brew green tea - or mizudashi - is a cold-poured green tea that is particularly popular as a soft drink in the hot summer months. Our SPS COLD-BREW SHINCHA TEA SUPREME BIO stands out in its originality from the number of cold infusions offered: Through a special blending process, the tea mixture consisting of SP SHINCHA-TEA SUPREME BIO and MATCHA PREMIUM KIRISHIMA-MATCHA-TEA BIO (product no. 2) not only refined in terms of quality. It also comes in a practical tea bag, which reduces preparation time to a minimum and makes it an ideal companion for both indoor and outdoor activities.

The sleek finish of the 8-2 MATCHA PREMIUM KIRISHIMA-MATCHA-TEA BIO leaves a pleasant feeling on the tongue, so that the SPS COLD-BREW SHINCHA TEA SUPREME BIO is suitable as a vitalising thirst quencher. Gentle and wholesome, it is also drunk by children and pregnant women in Japan's hot summer months.

Preparation recommendation:

First put the tea bag (10g) in the bottle / vessel and then pour 750ml to 1l of still, cold water. Then let it steep in the refrigerator for about three hours. Ready!

While outside of Japan a large number of Mizudashi teas are made from tea leaves of the second and third picking, our Mizudashi tea leaves come from the original first picking. The special thing about the refinement of two high-quality teas that make up this cold-water tea is also reflected in the individual options for preparing and enjoying the tea according to your own style. If you shorten the brewing time, for example, by half an hour to 2 hours, the gentle note reminiscent of citrus plants gains accent. It turns the already refreshing cold drink into a sporty thirst quencher. A doubling of the steeping time to six hours, on the other hand, primarily intensifies the taste of the noble umami component, while the bitterness and astringency are barely recognisable. Green tea novices as well as experienced tea drinkers will get to know a new side of Japanese green teas with our SPS COLD-BREW SHINCHA TEA SUPREME BIO with MATCHA PREMIUM BIO.
