Green tea | Japan


TASTING NOTE

Grapefruit GREEN Tea: An explosion of freshness

Succumb to the perfect marriage of the nobility of Japanese green tea and the vibrant energy of grapefruit. This exclusive creation from Lupicia is an invitation to a sensory journey, where the delicate bitterness of the tea meets the sparkling acidity of citrus. A tea with character, it has become a must-have for those seeking a beverage that is both invigorating and refined.

Did you know?

Grapefruit aroma is recognized in aromatherapy for its energizing properties and its ability to improve concentration. Combined with the antioxidants of green tea, this blend is your best ally for an active and healthy break.

Aromatic profile

The secret of this blend lies in the subtle balance between the vegetal base of green tea and the aroma of the fruit.

  • Top Notes: A powerful and authentic fragrance of freshly cut grapefruit that escapes as soon as the bag is opened.
  • Heart: A base of high-quality Japanese green tea, selected for its sweetness, which tempers the citrus zest.
  • Finish: A sensation of purity and freshness that lingers on the palate, without any lingering bitterness.

The perfect tea for every season

Green Grapefruit Green Tea is remarkably versatile, adapting to your every mood:

  • Hot tea: For an invigorating start to your day or a revitalizing afternoon break. The warmth of the water enhances the citrus's essential oils.
  • Iced tea (Cold Brew): This is undoubtedly one of the best ways to enjoy a cold brew. Steep the leaves in fresh water overnight in the refrigerator for an ultra-refreshing, naturally sweet, and calorie-free beverage.

Why choose Lupicia Grapefruit Green Tea?

  1. Premium flavor: We use high-quality essences to guarantee a taste true to the fruit.
  2. Rich in antioxidants: Enjoy the natural benefits of green tea combined with the energizing effect of citrus.
  3. Iconic packaging: Available loose leaf or in our famous illustrated metal tins, perfect for gifting or preserving the freshness of the leaves.

Preparation Tips

To enjoy the brightness of grapefruit without extracting its astringency, the water temperature is crucial:

  • Temperature: Use water between 75°C and 85°C. Water that is too hot will mask the citrus's volatile notes and make the green tea too bitter.
  • Brewing Time: A brewing time of 1 minute 30 seconds to 2 minutes is ideal. This allows the grapefruit aromas to fully develop while preserving the tea's sweetness.
  • Dosage: Use approximately 2.5g to 3g of tea (one heaped teaspoon) per 150ml of water.
  • Re-infusions: Like all high-quality green teas, this tea can be brewed up to 2 times. For subsequent infusions, you can slightly increase the temperature and reduce the brewing time to 30 seconds.
  • Iced Tea Option: This tea is one of the best candidates for cold brewing (Mizudashi). Steep 10g to 12g of tea in a liter of water in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 hours. The result is an incredibly invigorating drink, without any bitterness, perfect for hot summer days.

Specifications

  • Ingredients: Green tea, citrus peel, orange peel, grapefruit flavor
  • Type of tea and origin: Sencha green tea from Japan
  • Can be re-infused: 1 - 2 times
  • Number of infusions for 50g: about 20
