by Saijoen西条園
A mid-grade usucha for home use and cooking. Saijoen describes it as having moderate bitterness, a clean sweetness, and enough body that the tea flavor still reads clearly in recipes.

Editorial verdict
A practical middle-tier usucha that balances drinkability with strong culinary utility.
