Sencha Japan Style

Sencha Japan Style is a Chinese loose leaf green tea inspired by traditional Japanese Sencha character. Made with Chinese Sencha green tea leaves, it is carefully pan-fired soon after harvest to help preserve its fresh green profile, clean taste and smooth, balanced cup.

The infusion is fresh, grassy and lightly umami, with a clear green colour and delicate marine-style notes. It has a smooth, crisp taste without roasted heaviness, making it a refreshing choice for those who enjoy bright green tea with a clean finish and a naturally elegant character.

With a shorter steep, Sencha Japan Style produces a clear, light green cup; with a longer infusion, the liquor can become more intense and slightly cloudy. Best enjoyed plain, it is a lovely everyday green tea for drinkers who appreciate Japanese-inspired freshness in a carefully made Chinese Sencha.

Tea brewing method: 

For sencha tea, one teaspoon for every 8-12 ounces of water is enough. First boil the water, then let it cool for about 3 minutes. It's important for the water to be hot, not boiling hot. Next, pour the hot water over the tea leaves and let it steep for 2 minutes.

Once the steeping time is done, don't fill the cups by pouring the tea all at once. Pour a little in each cup, then go back and pour a bit more. Repeat these steps until you've poured all the sencha tea, leaving the leaves dry in the teapot. Pouring tea alternately into cups helps to evenly distribute the richer-flavoured tea at the bottom of the pot.

Sencha tea can be served both hot and cold. During winter, it helps keep you warm and healthy, and during summer, it counts as a refreshing beverage if you drink it cold.
