Flavor Profile: Sweet Aroma & Supreme Umami

Kakuun is defined by an elegant, refined balance. Upon whisking, the finely milled powder releases a distinctively sweet, inviting aroma. On the palate, it delivers a profound, exceptional umami (gokujo no umami) that lingers smoothly without harsh astringency. The depth of flavor makes it perfectly suited for daily preparation or formal tea ceremonies.

National Tea Competition Excellence

The leaves reserved for the Kakuun blend are meticulously grown and harvested with a relentless pursuit of perfection. This dedication to agriculture and processing ensures that the tea leaves used for Kakuun consistently achieve top-tier awards at Japan's annual National Tea Competition. It is the ultimate expression of Shogyokuen’s agricultural mastery.
