Morning in Asakusa (12 Tea Bags)

Quiet Morning at the Temple

Memories of Tokyo Collection

A delicate Japanese tea inspired by the quiet atmosphere surrounding Sensō-ji Temple in the early morning.

Before the crowds arrive and the city fully awakens, Asakusa reveals another face of Tokyo — soft light falling across old wooden buildings, the distant sound of footsteps against stone paths, and the faint aroma of incense drifting through the cool morning air.

Morning in Asakusa was created to capture that fleeting stillness.

Built upon the smooth body of deep-steamed sencha and layered with the gentle warmth of roasted tea, the blend evokes the calm atmosphere of a historic temple district. A trace of tonka bean adds a subtle roundness, while osmanthus rises quietly like the first light of morning.

The result is a tea that feels soft, nostalgic, and quietly immersive — a sensory memory of Tokyo suspended in aroma.
