Kirari 31 is a rare, limited-production cultivar from Yame, Fukuoka, created by crossing Sakimidori and Saemidori. Known for its vibrant jade-green color, rich umami, and smooth finish. 

Expect a naturally sweet profile with notes of edamame, toasted nori, sweet cornstalk, and a hint of ripe peach with intense umami and almost no bitterness.

The aroma is bright and floral with a gentle nuttiness, while the low bitterness keeps every cup smooth and balanced!
