Overview
Pairing: sushi, steamed vegetables, or citrusy salads
An organically grown green Sencha tea from China. To create Sencha tea the leaves are folded lengthwise while drying on warm trays, then heated in wood-fuelled pans in order to stop the fermentation resulting in distinctive grass green leaves in the finished tea and a fresh, sweet flavour. Brew for 1-3 minutes. Water temperature: 75-80 degrees C. Use 4-5 heaped teaspoons per litre of water.
