At the international Monde Selection in Brussels, where over 80 experts award exquisite foods from all over the world, this Sencha has won the Gold Award 15 years in a row - from 2011 to 2026. We can well understand this, it is also one of our absolute favorite varieties. The name says it all: "Mi-shi-ro", "Beauty that rises like gentle mist and inner desires".
This full-bodied Sencha captivates with its slightly astringent taste, reminiscent of fresh lamb's lettuce. The fine balance of sour and earthy notes makes it a perfectly rounded blend. The secret lies in the special steaming method directly after harvesting. "Monde Mishiro" is a so-called Fukamushi tea, which is steamed for a particularly long time. This method leads to a more intense taste and a deeper, bright green color. The steaming process causes the leaves to break down more easily, resulting in a cloudier infusion and enhancing the characteristic rich taste and full aroma. Compared to traditional Sencha, Fukamushi is characterized by its rich umami note and lower bitterness.
We offer Monde Mishiro as loose tea and in the practical tea bag variant.
Hot preparation
- 300 ml water (70 degrees)
- 1 tea bag
- 1-2 minutes steeping time
Cold Brew
- 300 ml water, ice cold
- 1 tea bag
- after five minutes of steeping, serve in a glass with ice cubes.
The preparation of your tea is unique. Here is our suggestion, but you can try different quantities and temperatures yourself.
