Sencha - Green tea

Origin: China

This tea is a lovely everyday green tea and one of our best sellers . This style of green tea is the most popular green tea in Japan where, unlike Chinese green teas, it is first steamed to prevent oxidation. As a result you get a  light liquor with a smooth, deep body and a grassy, more vegetal flavour. It may be re-infused as many as 3 times. 

Brewing Instructions:
- one teaspoon/cup
- 80 ̊C water temperature
- steep for 2-3 mins
- usually drunk without milk
- may be reinfused
