Awakening of Insects
March 5th is "Awakening of Insects".
This is the time when insects sense the arrival of spring and emerge from the earth.
Although it's still cold out there, let's get a head start on spring.
Our blended tea for the awakening of insects combines Yamato Midori Sencha from Tsukigase, Nara Prefecture with mugwort.
A blended tea characterized by a strong bitter taste and a deep, rich green flavor. Even after multiple brews, the flavor remains clearly defined.
The herbal refreshing sensation provided by mugwort is a pleasant combination.
Mugwort buds appear in the spring, heralding the coming of spring. It has also been loved since ancient times as a familiar medicinal herb that anyone can gather.
This is because mugwort has a strong life force that allows it to grow anywhere. In ancient China, the land where immortal immortals lived was called "Mountain of Mugwort."
In fact, it is known to have strong antioxidant properties.
Tea, especially sencha, is also rich in catechins, which help prevent aging and improve immunity.
Don't underestimate the power of tea and mugwort.
Drinking this as your first cup of tea will not only warm your body, but the synergistic effect of the sencha and mugwort will clear your mind. This way, you can receive the power of nature and start your day on a good note.
Don't miss this moment of the beginning of spring, so be sure to take a break and enjoy some tea.
