It’s spring time in Japan, which means that the 2010 shincha harvest is just around corner. O-Cha.com have just started their pre-order sale, and you can get 10% off if you order now with this discount code: shincha2010.
Shincha comes from the year’s first harvest of green tea. Unlike other green teas, which are put into cold storage to maintain freshness, shincha is packaged immediately and sold as quickly as possible. It truly is the freshest of the fresh.

An email from O-Cha this morning reminded me: 2009′s first harvest is drawing near. And O-Cha have four shinchas ready to pre-order, from four different Japanese tea gardens.
