Uogashi Sencha - Japanese green tea (80 g)

Uogashi Sencha is a Japanese green tea with a golden hue, fresh green aroma, distinct umami, and a clean, slightly astringent finish. It is suitable both as a first step into Japanese tea and as a recurring everyday cup when you want a clear cup with distinct character. The leaves are steamed immediately after harvest and carefully rolled into their thin, needle-like shape. This sencha is grown in Japan in full sunlight, without shading, which results in a lighter golden cup, lively aroma, and more balanced astringency than a shade-grown tea. Brew Uogashi Sencha with 4-5 grams of leaves, approximately 80°C water, and a steeping time of 30-40 seconds. If the tea tastes bitter, it is usually the water or the time that needs adjustment: lower the temperature slightly, shorten the brewing time, and let the leaves show their softer green side. Drink it with rice dishes, mild fish, vegetables, small sweet treats, or as a peaceful break when you want a Japanese green tea that feels fresh, clean, and easy to return to.

Chaginza Houjicha - roasted hojicha (100 g)

Chaginza Houjicha is an unusual hojicha made from the stems of the ChaGinza sencha by the tea house Uogashi Meicha. It resembles kukicha in raw material and feel but is roasted in the same style as a classic hojicha. The roasting results in an amber-coloured cup with soft warmth, low astringency, and aromas leaning towards roasted grains, nuts, and mild caramel. The stems make the expression lighter and airier than a leaf-based hojicha, without losing the roasted character. Brew Chaginza Houjicha with 3 grams of tea, 100°C water, and a steeping time of 30-60 seconds. It tolerates hot water better than many green teas and becomes smooth in the cup without quickly turning bitter. Drink it with rice dishes, roasted food, dark chocolate, fika (coffee break), or as a calming evening cup when you want a roasted Japanese tea with warmth, clear aroma, and a smooth finish.

Cha Cha Cha - Japanese Tea Tasting Box (23 g)

Cha Cha Cha is a Japanese tea tasting box for those who want to explore several teas at home without starting with large bags. The box contains five portion-packed tea bags: three different sencha, one genmaicha, and one hojicha. Each bag is portioned for a full pot and can be brewed multiple times. This makes the box an easy way to feel the difference between fresh sencha, mild genmaicha with roasted rice, and roasted hojicha with warmer aroma. Cha Cha Cha works both as an introduction to Japanese tea and as a small Japanese tea gift. The content is the same in all colors, so choose the box that best suits you or the recipient.

Seaveges suji aonori-pulver, påse med torkat sjögräspulver på ett litet fat

Seaveges Suji Aonori - Japanese Seaweed Powder

Suji aonori is considered the most aromatic and elegant of Japan's edible seaweeds. This is it as a fine powder: a deep green seasoning with a fresh, almost herbal ocean aroma and distinct umami, made to be sprinkled over food just before serving. Think of it like saffron: it is dosed in pinches, not tablespoons, and a small amount carries a whole dish. The powder comes from Sea Vegetable Company, which in 2016 became the first in the world to grow aonori on land in pure underground seawater. The method was born out of a problem: wild harvests of suji aonori have declined sharply as Japan's coastal seabeds have been depleted. Land cultivation also gives a cleaner product, and the seaweed is dried fresh to preserve the aroma without off-flavors. The contents are 100% suji aonori, nothing else. Use it the way you would use a fresh herb: a pinch over butter-fried fish, baked potatoes, risotto, eggs or pasta. Try it instead of dill on midsummer new potatoes, or sprinkle it over salted crisps and fries. The aroma is awakened by fat, so it is at its best with butter, oil or dairy. 15 grams may sound small, but this is a bag with long reach: a pinch of half a gram to one gram is enough per dish, so the bag carries 20 to 30 dishes of concentrated ocean aroma. That is how it is used in restaurant kitchens too. We are proud of our collaboration with Seaveges, a company that takes sustainability seriously, keeps an endangered Japanese food tradition alive and supplies renowned restaurants around the world, several with stars in the Guide Michelin. We are the first in Sweden to carry their products.
