Matsu no Midori (松の緑) is a traditional Japanese tea that is made from young, tender leaves of the tea plant that are harvested in the spring. The name "Matsu no Midori" translates to "green of the pine tree," which reflects the deep green color of the tea leaves. This tea is known for its refreshing and grassy flavor, with a hint of sweetness and a smooth finish. It is often enjoyed as a light and cleansing beverage, perfect for sipping on a warm spring day. Matsu no Midori is typically brewed using the traditional Japanese method of steeping the leaves in hot water for a short period of time, resulting in a delicate and aromatic tea. It is a popular choice among tea enthusiasts who appreciate the natural and pure taste of high-quality green tea.
