What is Yuzu?

Smell: A bright, cheerful citrus scent reminiscent of fresh, high mountain pine needles, but with a softness reminiscent of a kind of orange ice cream. Salty, lime notes can also be discovered in addition to the characteristic smell of Japanese green tea.
Taste: Citrusy, slightly salty, fruity taste.
Place of production: Haruno - the famous mountainous area of Shizuoka Prefecture. Yuzu comes from Kawane.
