The dust floating on the surface of tea is actually proof that the tea is delicious!
When you brew tea, have you ever noticed some dust-like particles floating on the surface?
This is not actually dust, but is called "mouji" or "mojo" and can be seen when drinking new tea.
It grows on the underside of young shoots and protects the leaves from pests and strong sunlight.
As the young, tender leaves grow, they harden and no longer need protection, so the hairs gradually disappear.
Have you ever mistaken something for dust and thrown it away?
Tea with floating hairs is proof that it is a high-quality tea made with young, tender new buds. From now on, you can enjoy delicious new tea with peace of mind.
By the way, when you pour roasted green tea into the tea, an oily film may appear on the surface.
We have received a surprising number of inquiries wondering if the problem is due to residual detergent or a problem with the manufacturing process, but it is actually a component derived from tea leaves.
Plant leaves contain oils to protect their surface. This is the natural oil that comes out of the tea leaves during roasting, and does not affect the quality. Please enjoy with peace of mind.
