Japanese Sencha Green Tea: A Taste of Tradition

Experience the authenticity of Japan with our Japanese Sencha Green Tea, a tea that embodies centuries of tradition and rigorous craftsmanship. Unlike non-Japanese senchas, which are often pan-roasted, Japanese Sencha is steamed immediately after harvest. This unique process preserves its vibrant green color and enhances the umami flavor that distinguishes it as a superior and distinctive green tea.

What makes Japanese sencha special?

• Steam Cooking Process: Unlike roasting, Japanese Sencha is steamed, which gives it a fresh, vegetal taste, a mild sweet note and a grassy aroma, in contrast to the roasted flavors of Chinese-style Sencha.
• Umami Rich Flavor: Thanks to Japan's unique terroir and traditional cooking techniques, this Sencha offers a sweet umami profile balanced by delicate floral notes.
• Sustainable Culture in Japan: Grown in the lush green fields of Japan, our Sencha is a testament to the care and precision of Japanese tea producers.

The Art of Japanese Sencha

Originating in the 18th century, Sencha quickly became one of Japan’s most beloved teas, symbolizing everyday luxury. Japanese producers perfected the steaming technique to preserve the fresh, grassy character of the leaves, a key characteristic of authentic Sencha. Its bright green color and pure flavor have made it a mainstay of Japanese culture and a favorite of green tea lovers around the world.

Ingredients: Whole leaves of Japanese sencha green tea.
