You'll be amazed by the buttery smooth notes and soft, cloud-like palate of this beautiful tea. Pairs like a charm with any type of sweet or savory dish, its gentle character never overwhelms & is similar to a Pinot Noir therefore can be served in lieu of a fine Pinot with any meal.

  • Earthy
  • Chocolate

When I first cupped this impeccable black tea from Kagoshima, Japan, the only words that left my mouth were, "It's like sipping a cloud." Sweet & free of astringency, this smooth copper-hued, lava-soil grown tea is perfumed only by fresh air boasting slight floral notes laced with perfect mineral balance & a faint hint of chocolate. 

Rare Black Tea from Japan is teeming with natural polyphenols & antioxidants. Black tea promotes heart health by lowering blood pressure and decreasing "bad" cholesterol (LDL.) According to the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 3 cups per day significantly reduces the risk of a stroke. Black tea also supports healthy gut flora, and contains L-Theanine, an amino acid responsible for the balanced delivery of caffeine.

Steep 1 teaspoon in 8oz 212 degree freshly heated filtered or spring water for 3-5 minutes. Strain and sip!

    I wish this came in a petite jar

    I love this and the only reason I haven’t reordered is I’d like to have it in a jar so it can sit with my other teas

    A unique black tea!

    I really enjoy a nice breakfast tea but had never had a Japanese one before so this was a delightful treat. It's not as strong as some breakfast teas, but it still lovely and robust. There is a subtle sweetness to the aroma and taste and fruity hints. I will keep this in rotation for sure.

    Strong but smooth

    I'm very particular about my single source black teas, and Japanese Breakfast is now one of my favorites. Delicate, yet rich, it's perfectly lovely on its own or with just a touch of honey.
