Ume Plum Tea draws inspiration from traditional Japanese dietary principles to offer a moment of complete well-being:

• Antioxidant Action (EGCG): Green tea is a major source of catechins, molecules that help fight cellular aging and strengthen the body's natural defenses.
• Digestive Support and Alkalizing: In Japan, Ume is renowned for its purifying properties. This tea is the ideal companion after a meal to promote easy digestion and relieve feelings of fatigue.
• Hydration and Detox: With no added sugar, this blend helps cleanse the body while offering a soothing sensory experience, perfect for rebalancing the body daily.

To fully appreciate Plum Green Tea without compromising its delicate flavor, it is crucial to follow the brewing guidelines for Japanese green tea:

• Temperature: Use spring or filtered water, between 75°C and 85°C. Water that is too hot will make the Sencha bitter and mask the subtle plum aroma.
• Brewing Time: A short brewing time of 1 minute 30 seconds to 2 minutes is ideal for extracting the fruity sweetness while preserving the tea's lively character.
• Dosage: Use approximately 2,5g to 3g of tea (one heaped teaspoon) per 150ml of water.
• Iced Serving: This tea is exquisite iced. Its tangy flavor makes it an extremely refreshing drink for summer afternoons.
• Re-infusions: Like all high-quality green teas, Plum Green Tea can be brewed up to two times. For subsequent infusions, you can slightly increase the temperature and reduce the steeping time to 30 seconds.
• The Secret to Iced Tea: Ume plums are exceptional iced. As a cold brew (Mizudashi), it's the perfect drink for summer afternoons.
