Chiran has a warm and humid climate, with deep mists that contribute to this tea's flavor. The soil in this area is unique because it is made of volcanic ash from an active volcano, Sakurajima. This makes the soil particularly good for growing tea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDen's Fukamushi Sencha Chiran is also unique because it's made of a special cultivar, Asatsuyu. Asatsuyu is often described as being, \"like gyokuro\", even though it is sencha. It brews up a beautiful, deep green color that is reminiscent of jade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor an in-depth discussion of the terroir, health benefits, and production of fukamushi sencha varieties, please check out our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/densgreenteablog.org\/the-deep-steamed-sencha-the-interesting-benefits-of-drinking-fukamushi-sencha\/\"\u003efukamushi blog post.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrigin: Chiran, Kagoshima\u003cbr\u003eHarvest: First Flush\u003cbr\u003eCultivar: Asatsuyu \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Profile\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNutty umami flavor like edamame\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDen's Preferred Brewing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeaf-water ratio: 2-3 g (~1 tsp) per 4 oz\u003cbr\u003eWater: 160°F; Steep: 45 sec\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e2nd Cup\u003c\/span\u003e Water: 180°F; Steep 15 sec \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor more helpful tips on brewing fukamushi, take a look \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/denstea.com\/blogs\/news\/brew-easy-for-a-cup-with-deep-color-and-flavor?_pos=10\u0026amp;_sid=c3fa66f35\u0026amp;_ss=r\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Den's Tea","offers":[{"title":"2 oz (56 g)","offer_id":47527558971607,"sku":"1215","price":18.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 lb (454 g)","offer_id":37506147057822,"sku":"1216","price":128.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0529\/3909\/6222\/products\/pre-fukamushi-chiran2019.jpg?v=1756840433","url":"https:\/\/denstea.com\/products\/fukamushi-sencha-chiran","provider":"Den's Tea","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
