Why You'll Love This Tea
Sencha represents about 80% of the tea produced in Japan. This sencha will consistently brew a fresh and satisfying cup - it's great for starting your day or brightening your afternoon!
You can re-steep the leaves several times to get the most out of this lovely green tea. Try 1 minute steeps or adjust the preparation to suit your own preferences. Sencha is a great option for cold-brewing (steeping in cold water for a few hours) - you'll wind up with a refreshing, cooling green tea with little or no bitterness and plenty of natural sweetness. Check out this step-by-step guide on how to cold-brew your tea!
