Sencha

Japanese green tea is steamed or pan fried over a flame after plucking to stop oxidation and to preserve the tea‘s exquisite green colour.

 

The first plucking of new tea leaf sprouts in early spring makes for a sweet and full flavoured Sencha that’s very rich in theine and vitamins. It‘s the most popular tea in Japan and our Sencha comes from the finest estate located in the beautiful region of Uji, near Kyoto. 

You can find this special tea in our Japanese tea selection.
