Sencha

Sencha is the most traditional and popular green tea in Japan with a taste that pleasantly balances bitterness and sweetness. Our Sencha is especially flavorful because of the Tea Maestro's original roasting technique, and it is one of the reasons why our tea is loved in the U.S.A. Our Sencha is available in either loose leaf or tea bag form.

How to Serve Green Tea:
For Restaurant Owners
Use the following recipe to make one quart of Sencha in a pitcher.
Use approximately 7 grams of our Sencha loose leaf tea, or one of our 5 gram Sencha tea bags.
Add one quart of hot water, ideally between 160F to 190F depending on your preference.
The tea leaves or tea bags don't need to be removed. Our tea will never get too bitter.
