Description
Organic Sencha Green Tea
Discover the exquisite taste of our Organic Sencha Green Tea, a traditional Japanese tea that embodies the art of green tea craftsmanship. "Sencha" refers to a specific style of green tea, characterized by the way the leaves are harvested and processed, resulting in its distinctively fresh, grassy flavour and bright green hue.
Our Sencha tea leaves are carefully hand-picked during the first flush of the season, ensuring the highest quality. The leaves are then immediately steamed, a process unique to Sencha, which helps to preserve their natural colour, nutrients, and delicate flavour. After steaming, the leaves are rolled, shaped, and dried, locking in their aromatic essence and creating the signature needle-like appearance of Sencha tea.
Brewing Instructions:
To fully appreciate the nuanced flavours of Organic Sencha Green Tea, follow these ideal brewing steps:
- Water Temperature: Heat fresh, filtered water to 70-80°C (160-175°F). Boiling water should be avoided to prevent bitterness and preserve the tea's delicate character.
- Tea Quantity: Use 1 teaspoon (about 2 grams) of Sencha per cup (240 ml) of water.
- Steeping Time: Pour the heated water over the tea leaves and steep for 1-2 minutes. A shorter steep will yield a milder, sweeter cup, while a longer steep will bring out more of the tea's robust, grassy notes.
- Enjoy: Strain the tea leaves and enjoy the refreshing, clean taste of Organic Sencha Green Tea.
Sencha is perfect for multiple infusions, with each steeping offering a new dimension of flavour. Whether enjoyed hot or chilled, this versatile tea provides a moment of calm and clarity, making it an ideal choice for any time of day. Embrace the tradition of Japanese tea culture with our Organic Sencha Green Tea, and savour the essence of nature in every cup.
