88th Night Greet Tea gets its name from its traditional date of harvest: 88 nights after the Japanese Lunar New Year. This poetic tradition signals the start of the tea harvest, and so 88th Night tea is always classified as ichibancha, or first-flush. It is typically hand-picked with great care and has a fresh, vegetal flavor with a sweet aroma.
