Japanese Sencha Green Tea-125g

Japanese Sencha Tea is a celebrated green tea that perfectly captures Japan’s rich tea heritage. Known for its fresh, grassy flavours and naturally sweet, refreshing finish, it is the preferred choice for the majority of Japanese tea drinkers. This tea is crafted using traditional methods refined over centuries, offering an authentic and high-quality brew in every cup.

Sencha is produced from the first tender leaves harvested in early spring. Skilled tea makers hand-pick these young leaves to preserve their vivid green colour, freshness, and nutrient content. The leaves are then quickly steamed to prevent oxidation, which locks in the tea’s delicate herbaceous notes, before being carefully rolled and dried to maintain flavour and aroma.

Originating in the 18th century, thanks to the innovations of Nagatani Soen in the Uji region near Kyoto, Japanese Sencha has become a cornerstone of Japanese tea culture. Every cup offers a taste of tradition, craftsmanship, and centuries of tea-making expertise.

Sencha green tea is a nutrient-rich, steamed Japanese green tea packed with antioxidants (especially EGCG) that boost metabolism, enhance immune function, and support heart health. It provides a calm, focused energy boost due to moderate caffeine and L-theanine, while also promoting youthful skin and improved oral health.
