What makes Postcard Teas Japanese Shincha distinctive?
Postcard Teas in Mayfair is one of London's most remarkable specialist tea shops — tiny, perfectionist, and sourcing teas directly from individual farmers in Japan, China, and Taiwan. Their Shincha ('new tea') is a first-harvest Japanese green tea, the absolute first picking of the season from specific farms in Kagoshima, Shizuoka, or Uji. Shincha has the highest levels of L-theanine and the lowest levels of tannins of any Japanese tea — the result is an intensely bright, grassy, sweet green tea with a remarkable umami depth and almost no bitterness. Available in tiny quantities, usually pre-sold by subscription. For those who understand that tea, like wine, has vintages worth seeking out.
