Yame Black: Truly a unique offering, our Yame black is rare in that the volume of black tea made in Japan annually is incredibly low.

If you are a lover of bright, malty breakfast style black tea - this will be a perfect fit. We describe this tea as being Indian or Sri Lankan in style with a lovely, mild finish. Made from the Benifuuki cultivar, Yame black showcases the possibilites of Japan's emerging black tea market.
