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.
