The terroir affects the amount of umami in these matchas. Unjonotomo (extra thick grade) right on the banks of the Uji gawa (river in Japanese).Senjunomuksahi (thick grade) is grown a bit closer, and.Jobetsugi (thin grade) is grown about 20 miles outside of Uji,.It turns out the closer you get to Uji, the better the terroir (a fancy French word for “environment,” my wife is French so it’s ok if I use it). They are very nice teas that you can whisk up into a foam, so none are a culinary matcha that one uses for lattes and muffins. Matcha is the ground tea leaves that we get from my friend Tsuyoshi from Uji, Japan. Matcha Jobetsugi, Matcha Senjunomukashi, Matcha Unjonotomo My brother Paul came up with Supreme Breakfast, and it is the best of both worlds: a lovely Hao Ya B (from the same area as our English Breakfast) and a high-end Assam (same area as our Irish Breakfast Tea). I drink Assam tea most mornings, so I am a believer. Since they are made in a traditional method, they are not as strong as the teas from Kenya, but they are sweeter. Our version of Irish Breakfast is based upon an old recipe that our forefathers carried with them across the sea (just a bit of blarney from a Harney), but it is made with a stronger tea from Assam, India. If you need something stronger and want to drink it with milk and sugar, please consider our Special English Breakfast that uses very strong CTC teas from Assam and Kenya. It is lighter than the current breakfast teas drunk in the UK. Stanley Mason passed his version of English Breakfast down to Dad, and that is an old-time version of black teas from Keemun, China. You can keep to your tried and trusted start to the morning, or you can change it up. Well you have breakfast most mornings, so we offer options. Irish Breakfast, English Breakfast, Special English Breakfast and Supreme Breakfast They just love this particular blend of lovely teas, handfuls of white tea and a bit extra of lemony bergamot. Earl Grey Supreme is a customer favorite.Viennese Earl Grey was given to me by a Viennese tea man - it has darjeeling in the base teas, so it has a bit of a lighter and floral edge.Winter White uses white tea as a base so it is lighter.
