Blended with yaezakura cherry blossoms from the 2026 season, this sencha carries a soft floral aroma reminiscent of unopened spring buds. Gentle notes of sweet green apple and the fresh brightness of young leaves unfold on the palate, leaving a clear, spring‑tinged finish that lingers with quiet freshness.
