| Like all teas from Hibiki-An this Shincha is of superb quality and taste.
The tea leafs show the quality of this tea, even before brewing it. When buying from local resellers it is not uncommon to see pale green / yellowish leafs which usually brew into a bitter stale... (more)

| This year the new Farmers' Shincha suprised me very much! It is from my point of view stronger and more aromatic than the Editions I remember from the last years. It is an ideal refresher for hot summer days. First I tried 75°C and one minute 10 seconds for the bre... (more)

| Amazingly fresh! The minimal processing of aracha gives Farmers' Shincha a beautifully fresh and natural appearance and flavor. This tea has an excellent balance of astringency and sweetness, with a bit of tang and a unique flavor that is hard to accurately descr... (more)

Shincha is here and like anyone else I eagerly anticipated mine in the mail.
I ordered Farmers Shincha as well as Shincha Traditional (please check my review) and judging from the description I knew ... (more)

| WOW I just received my first shipment of 2012 shincha. The farmers' shincha is incredible. I made mine with a little cooler water (70 C) and slightly longer steeping time...I also added more leaves than the normal amount. The result was a tea so beautiful and elega... (more)
