The story of this blend
One green corner of the forest does not belong to the redwoods. The tanuki planted it himself, long ago, with bamboo carried from the country of his oldest stories. He whispers to it in his first language, and the sencha answers in kind. Lemongrass and spearmint keep the two of them company. On hot days he pours it over ice.
