{"product_id":"bancha-suruga","title":"Bancha Suruga","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBancha is produced from the bottom part of tea leaves. These leaves thicker and larger than those found at the top. They also tend to get more sun exposure, which makes the flavor profile of bancha somewhat more bitter and astringent then sencha. Nevertheless, it is appreciated in Japan for its robust flavor and lower caffeine content. Den's Bancha Suruga is an upgraded variation, using fresh green leaves picked right after the first flush of tea.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOrigin: Shizuoka\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHarvest: First Flush\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCultivar: Yabukita\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTasting Profile:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eNice balance of briskness, astringency and a hearty herbaceous flavor.
