Shincha- meaning new tea, will not be available for another couple weeks but we will put some up for pre-order only. Shops everywhere celebrate this spring harvest in Kyoto but the actual amount of Shincha made available is very little. The rest- Gyokuro and Sencha, are to be aged until September. With any luck, I have a bottle of water from the Ujikawa(Uji lake) that is mineral rich from having been under the sea eons ago. That water, the Shincha, together, should make an event already itself. The focus on these teas are so different we may have to hold 3 separate events for each separate country ….
