Sencha
Organic Japanese sencha tea bags offer an invigorating and refreshing flavor
About this tea
Sencha is the traditional, daily steamed green tea of Japan. Our Sencha is made from prized tea bush cultivars including Saemidori and Okumidori and is a blend of the first and second flush harvests from organic farms on Kyushu Island in southern Japan. Kyushu's mineral rich volcanic soil, coupled with skillful organic soil management, creates a sweet and full-bodied green tea flavor. This chumushi sencha yields a slightly opaque, bold green infusion with deep umami and juicy mouthfeel.

Kagoshima, Kyushu Island, Japan

Origin
Kagoshima
Kyushu Island, Japan
Kagoshima Prefecture is located at the southwest tip of Kyushu (the third largest island of Japan) and is largely mountainous and home to important lumber, fishing and agriculture industries. Much like the rest of Japan, this region has well manicured tea gardens with well-developed irrigation, and farmers follow strict growing procedures to produce this perfect tea bush shape and size.
