Our "very umami" teas

The term "umami" comes from the Japanese and means something like savoury, tasty. It is also referred to as the fifth flavour alongside the sweet, salty, sour and bitter flavours that we are most familiar with. Japanese green teas in particular, especially matcha and shaded green teas, can evoke intense umami flavours.
