Photo of Leaf of Master Obayashi’s Hijiri Black from Postcard Teas by Etienne FAT
Japan almost exclusively produces (and consumes) green tea, making this black tea grown in Japan somewhat of a rarity. The appearance is unusual, quite different from the look of typical black teas: note the numerous large pieces of stem, with a bright orange color, mixed in with the leaf.
