Tea cultivar

Kirari 31

A modern cultivar developed at the Miyazaki Prefectural Agricultural Experiment Station by crossing Sakimidori and Saemidori. Kirari 31 is prized for its intense umami, deep sweetness, and vibrant jade-green colour. It has an exceptionally low astringency and a fresh, lingering finish, making it ideal for single-cultivar ceremonial matcha.
