The translation of "望 銀印" to English is "Hope Silver Seal." Please note that the meaning might vary **[Second Flush Tea]** Ingredients: Green tea (produced in Shizuoka Prefecture) Net weight: 100g **[Proof of Highest Quality: Nozomi Label]** Only those that clear stringent review standards are certified as Shizuoka Makinohara Tea "Nozomi". **[Nozomi Silver Seal]** This tea is made with 100% rough tea containing over 4.7% total nitrogen (umami components). It has the distinct taste and depth of aroma typical of deep-steamed tea, and is truly cherished as a natural beverage in its purest form. **[Characteristics of Nozomi]** Grown with intentional shade, Nozomi offers an exceptional flavor. By shading the tea garden with covering nets, the chlorophyll in the tea leaves increases, resulting in a deep green color. The tea brewed from these leaves has a remarkably beautiful green hue. High in the umami component "theanine", it has low bitterness, resulting in a smooth tea with a strong umami flavor. The tea has a refined aroma unique to shaded cultivation. **[World Agricultural Heritage: Shizuoka's Tea Grassland Farming]** Tea grasslands are semi-natural grasslands where grasses such as bamboo grass and miscanthus are cut down and used as organic matter in tea gardens. This is a common sight in Shizuoka Prefecture. The practice of spreading grass harvested from tea grasslands in the tea garden produces higher quality tea. This activity allows for coexistence with nature without disrupting the ecological system. *The tea grassland farming in Shizuoka was recognized as a World Agricultural Heritage by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations on May 30, 2013.* "Gold Seal 100g" **[First Flush Tea]** Ingredients: Green tea (produced in Shizuoka Prefecture) Net weight: 100g Delicious even when brewed in cold water!

This practice maintains harmony with nature without disrupting the ecosystem and promotes coexistence with living organisms. *The tea grassland farming in Shizuoka was certified as a World Agricultural Heritage by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations on May 30, 2013.* 该商品直接从日本发货。 请注意，有关产品的措辞可能是日语。 从收到订单到发货需要 3-5 个工作日。 自订购之日起，交货大约需要 1 至 2 周。 如果您想要产品照片，请在下订单时提出要求。 非常感谢您的支持！
