About this item
- ◆Kakegawa Fukamushi Ichiban Sencha is a premium Japanese green tea, hailing from Kakegawa, a region in Shizuoka prefecture known for its tea production. It is highly regarded for its exceptional quality and distinct flavor.
- ◆The "Fukamushi" in its name refers to the deep steaming process the tea leaves undergo during production. Compared to regular sencha, Fukamushi sencha is steamed for a longer duration, usually around 1-2 minutes. This extended steaming time results in finely broken leaves and a powdery appearance.
- ◆The deep steaming technique used for Kakegawa Fukamushi Ichiban Sencha leads to a unique flavor profile. It enhances the tea's umami, resulting in a rich, full-bodied taste with a smooth and mellow character. It often carries vegetal notes, along with a slight sweetness and a refreshing aroma.
- ◆Due to the longer steaming process, the tea leaves of Kakegawa Fukamushi Ichiban Sencha are smaller and more fragmented compared to regular sencha. This allows for a faster infusion and extraction of flavors during brewing, resulting in a vibrant and intensely flavorful cup of tea.
- ◆Kakegawa Fukamushi Ichiban Sencha is typically brewed using slightly cooler water compared to other green teas. The recommended brewing temperature is around 70-80°C (158-176°F). This lower temperature helps to prevent any bitterness and allows the tea's delicate flavors to shine through, providing a pleasant and satisfying tea-drinking experience.

Japanese Green Tea
Loose Leaf Sencha
- kamushi (Deep-Steamed) Sencha: Shorter Brewing Time and a Deep Green Color.
- High Quality Sencha
Fukamushi-sencha is another type of green tea that is extremely common in Japan.
Despite being much richer than the normal Sencha in taste, it's generally considered budget-friendly, and it also contains much greater levels of nutrients. This makes Fukamushi-Sencha a great candidate for your "everyday Japanese tea".
Fukamusi Sencha Green Tea
Fukamusi sencha: A normal tea needs to be steamed for 30-40 seconds, but This Fukamushi sencha green tea loose leaf (Deep steamed tea) is twice steamed. The Time is 60-80 seconds. By steaming longer, the bitterness is suppressed and the leaves become finer with a deep green color and a mild taste. Since it is easier to extract than a normal Sencha tea, it is also suited for a cold brew iced tea.

The tea leaves develop a bright color and mild flavor
Fukamushicha is a green tea that is steamed for more than twice as long as a typical sencha. The tea leaves develop a bright color and mild flavor. HAMASA-EN uses flesh green tea leaves grown in Makinohara, Shizuoka prefecture for deep-steamed green tea. Fine tea leaves for Fukamushi are delicate, so it does not take time to steep Fukamushi green tea. You can enjoy a sweet and delicious taste for the brief preparation time for Fukamushi green tea. If you have a Fukamushi teapot having a steel mesh filter fitted all the way around the interior of the teapot named "Obi-Ami Kyusu" due to the nature of the fragile deep-steamed leaves, you can enjoy even more delicious taste and aroma.
