What's produced the world over, a wakoucha, or black tea produced in Japan is rare! While you may see this oxidized Japanese tea sold as a "black" tea, the true translation in Japanese is actually "red" (kou, 紅) tea. And you'll certainly see why in the ruby liquor of Mizuba's exquisitely crafted wakoucha made with the Kōshun (or kousyun) cultivar.
