Description
Sencha Superior is made from the predominant Yabukita cultivar of Shizuoka, Japan and offers the classic, bittersweet and balanced umami flavor that represents the original Japanese Sencha taste profile. Sencha Superior is mostly from high grown gardens in Shizuoka and undergoes a light steaming process called asamushi that is employed by tea farmers to preserve the tea's inherent varietal and origin characteristics. The clear, golden-green and brisk infusion of Sencha Superior is fresh and lively with a savory-sweet and crisp finish.

Sencha Superior
Nice brew but not necessarily a standout. Good for an everyday choice.

Sencha Superior is the best taste for the money.

Clearly Superior
I have only tried a limited amount and kinds of green tea (tea bags, loose leaf). The Sencha Superior
...
I've had is clearly superior from the others I've had. I'd like to try more but this by far is my favorite.
