{"title":"Kamairicha","description":"\u003ch5 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eKamairicha refers to green teas that do not undergo steaming but instead are pan or wok fired. This style of tea holds a direct link to the teas introduced to Japan from China over a thousand years ago. While making up only a fraction of the tea produced in Japan, Kamairicha offers the chance to experience a rewarding and delicious style of Japanese tea.\u003c\/h5\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"limited-edition-miyazaki-kamairicha","title":"Limited Edition Miyazaki Kamairicha","description":"This exceptional Kamairicha was sourced from the Sakamoto family in Gokase, Miyazaki. We were blown away by the Sakamoto family's traditional preparation of this pan-fired style. In contrast to many teas produced in Kyushu today, this tea represents a much leaner style, focusing more on the delicate sophistication of the Yabukita cultivar, which servesa as the base of this blend, instead of a deep umami and rich texture. We cold stored 1kg of this supreme selection, reserved for a special occasion, and we are delighted to share it with you in celebration of our Los Angeles opening.","brand":"Kettl ","offers":[{"title":"25g","offer_id":47788511789306,"sku":"167976553494","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0080\/6178\/0028\/files\/c923842e-4255-4125-b6ef-fb1e3b2b8954.jpg?v=1760125424"},{"product_id":"sayama-micro-oxidized-kamairicha","title":"Sayama Micro-oxidized Kamairicha","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eOne of the most unique and stunning teas we have come across from a vanguard producer in Japanese tea production, Yoshiaki Hiruma. After harvest, the tea leaves undergo a controlled wilting process using ultraviolet light—a system Hiruma-san designed himself—before being pan-fired to halt oxidation. This unique process imbues the tea with a rich, pronounced chocolatey note, a complex fruitiness, and an umami that just keeps going. It is a supreme honor to share the teas of Yoshiaki Hiruma with a wider audience, and this selection may be the best representation of his unique vision, peerless execution, and breathtaking results. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kettl ","offers":[{"title":"25g","offer_id":47826178081018,"sku":"010516923571","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0080\/6178\/0028\/files\/676289dd-0ef8-4e0c-bb1f-a9dae4a7db01.jpg?v=1763068131"},{"product_id":"okumidori-kabuse-kamairicha","title":"Okumidori Kabuse Kamairicha","description":"\u003cp\u003eAmong the teas of Ureshino, kamairicha is most often defined by the character of the iron kama—the pan that gives the tea its signature roasted fragrance. Yet every so often a tea emerges that shifts the balance. This kabuse of 100% Okumidori from the Onohara family is one such rarity. Shaded before harvest, the leaves develop a deeper sweetness and supple texture, allowing the cultivar’s fragrance to rise clearly above the warm, fired aroma of the pan. The result is a tea that feels unusually generous—bigger and juicier than one expects from kamairicha—while still retaining the style’s unmistakable character. Despite its presence on the palate, there is a delicacy here that feels distinctly seasonal - reminding me of early Spring in Japan. What is perhaps most compelling is the harmony the tea achieves: though a single cultivar, it drinks with the balance and integration of a carefully composed blend, all while preserving the gentle charm that makes Okumidori so beloved. It is a pleasure to welcome this new tea into our collection and to share another hidden gem from the fields of Kyushu.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kettl ","offers":[{"title":"50g","offer_id":48555038802170,"sku":"167973107201","price":27.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0080\/6178\/0028\/files\/7beea5ce-ea20-4d24-b309-fd2a91ea40c6.jpg?v=1775076999"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0080\/6178\/0028\/collections\/Kamairicha.jpg?v=1709910330","url":"https:\/\/kettl.mom\/collections\/kamairicha-1.oembed","provider":"Kettl ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
