Asatsuyu green tea, often referred to as the "natural gyokuro" due to its similarities to the famed Gyokuro tea, is a unique and highly valued Japanese green tea. Asatsuyu is highly regarded for its exceptional balance of sweet and umami flavours, along with its inviting aroma and vibrant appearance. It's a tea that is often enjoyed by connoisseurs and those seeking a premium green tea experience, offering a taste that is both complex and harmoniously balanced.
Rich Umami Flavor: Asatsuyu is celebrated for its strong umami flavour, a savoury and brothy taste that is typically associated with high-quality Japanese green teas. This umami richness is one of its most prominent features.
Sweet and Mild: This tea often has a natural sweetness, which balances beautifully with its umami qualities. It's milder compared to some other green teas, making it pleasant and easy to drink.
Low Astringency: The astringency in Asatsuyu is typically quite low. This results in a smoother, more gentle cup of tea, without the sharpness or dryness that can come with more astringent teas.
Aromatic and Inviting: The aroma of Asatsuyu is often described as sweetly vegetal, with an inviting warmth that complements its taste profile.

The Asatsuyu Green Tea (50g) from Cha Haus has a naturally sweet, smooth taste with a rich flavour. The aroma is delicate, and the quality is excellent. Highly recommended for any green tea lover!
This has a gorgeous deep green colour. The taste is balanced and mild - somewhat similar to some gyokuro tea I've had in the past, maybe a wee bit stronger, but much milder than sencha. Overall, a really enjoyable tea.
