The characteristics and best brewing methods for Shizu 7132."},"content":{"rendered":"

“Shizu 7132” is a green tea known for its cherry blossom scent. Although the name “Shizu 7132” might sound somewhat informal compared to other varieties like “Yabukita” or “Saemidori,” this is because “Shizu 7132” was originally a management number used at the Shizuoka Tea Experiment Station in the 1960s.<\/p>

Originally, “Shizu 7132” was a variety developed from a naturally cross-pollinated tea tree of the “Yabukita” variety. Due to its unusual characteristic of having red new shoots, it did not receive much attention at the time. Consequently, it continued to be known by its management number, “Shizu 7132,” rather than having a more stylish variety name.<\/p>

Over time, its distinctive aroma began to attract more attention, and Here is the article<\/a> In recent years, with the rise of the new wave of enjoying single-origin green teas introduced in the article, ‘Shizuoka 7132’ has become increasingly popular. In Shizuoka City’s Shimizu Ward, it has also been given the charming variety name ‘Machiko,’ but it is still often referred to by its management number, ‘Shizuoka 7132.’ Perhaps it is the history of having been called by its management number while persevering that contributes to the deliciousness of ‘Shizuoka 7132.’<\/p>

Now, let’s introduce the characteristics and the best way to brew ‘Shizuoka 7132’ green tea.”<\/p>

Characteristics of the appearance of tea leaves and tea.<\/strong><\/p>

Even with the same Shizu 7132 variety of green tea, the appearance of the tea leaves can vary depending on the processing method. However, many are likely to be processed into a slender, needle-like shape, as shown in the photo above, using shallow to medium steaming. Additionally, there are Shizu 7132 teas that are deep-steamed until the leaves are fine or pan-fired to stop fermentation. The color of the brewed tea is a slightly yellowish green, which is unique and very beautiful. In English, this yellowish green is sometimes described as \"paradise green.\" The more you get to know Shizu 7132, the more attachment you develop.<\/pre><\/div><\/div>
 Flavor characteristics<\/strong><\/p>
This variety is characterized by a refreshing sweetness and astringency. Additionally, when brewed at a slightly lower temperature, it offers a rich umami flavor along with a velvety mouthfeel.<\/pre><\/div><\/div>
Aroma characteristics<\/strong><\/p>
You can enjoy the distinctive, floral aroma of Shizu 7132, which resembles the scent of cherry blossoms. This characteristic aroma, often likened to \"cherry blossom fragrance,\" is due to the aromatic compound *coumarin* found in Shizu 7132. Coumarin is also present in cherry leaves and mugwort, so our brains associate this aroma with cherry leaves, and from there, with cherry blossoms, hence the comparison to \"cherry blossom fragrance.\"

The contrast between the name of the Shizu 7132 variety and the aromatic compound *coumarin* adds to its appeal.<\/pre><\/div><\/div>
