This allows the leaves to mature without obtaining bitterness like gyokuro. However, the period of shading is usually shorter, 10-14 days, allowing for a slightly more astringency than gyokuro and producing a tea with a refined balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSteeping Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTea\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5g. \u003cstrong\u003eTime\u003c\/strong\u003e: 60 sec. \u003cstrong\u003eWater\u003c\/strong\u003e: 60C\/140F, 200 ml.

After the umami has been extracted and enjoyed while steeping at lower temperatures you can continue steeping at high temperature to extract the more bitter flavors. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"clear: both;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Info\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eName\u003c\/strong\u003e: Mountain-Grown Yamecha Kabusecha Green Tea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients\u003c\/strong\u003e: Green tea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCultivation notes\u003c\/strong\u003e: Machine harvested, shaded for 2 weeks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProcessing\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular steaming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Kippei, Yuji, and Akio Kurihara (Father and sons), Kurihara Seicha Ltd.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocation\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/R6mFn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e4236 Kita Yabe, Yabe-mura, Yame-shi, Fukuoka Prefecture 834-1401, JAPAN\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize \/ # of Fields\u003c\/strong\u003e: About 3 hectares\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAltitude\u003c\/strong\u003e: 300 - 700 meters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Kurihara Tea Farm","offers":[{"title":"[2026] 10g \/ 0.35 oz \/ May \/ Yunomi bag","offer_id":40597163245673,"sku":"kht1004-010-y26","price":670.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false},{"title":"[2026] 100g \/ 3.5 oz \/ May \/ Original bag","offer_id":41212699345001,"sku":"kht1004-100-y26","price":3900.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true},{"title":"[2026] MULTIPACK 1kg (100g x 10 bags) \/ 2.2 lbs \/ May \/ Original bags","offer_id":40597163311209,"sku":"kht1004-100x10-y26","price":32800.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true},{"title":"[2026] 1kg \/ 2.2 lbs \/ May \/ bulk bag","offer_id":4101688837,"sku":"kht1004-1kg-y26","price":30000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0926\/4578\/files\/20240215_113629_0000.png?v=1756778417","url":"https:\/\/yumenet.live\/products\/kurihara-tea-04-kabusecha-green-tea","provider":"yumenet.live","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
