Sencha Tea – Japan Sencha Fine

Description

Sencha Tea from Japan with fresh green tea character

Sencha Tea is one of the well-known Japanese green teas and stands for a fresh, clear and lightly grassy taste. Japan Sencha Fine shows a balanced cup with fine tartness, gentle sweetness and aromatic green tea character.

This Japanese sencha green tea is steamed, rolled and dried after harvest. This helps preserve its typical green freshness. In the cup, the tea tastes clear, lively and harmonious without becoming too heavy.

Taste of Sencha Tea

The taste of Sencha Tea is fresh, lightly grassy and finely tart. Depending on preparation, the tea can also show a gentle sweetness and a subtle umami note. It is a good choice if you are looking for a classic Japanese green tea with a clear character.

Compared with roasted Japanese teas such as Hojicha, Sencha tastes brighter and greener. It also differs clearly from the nutty Genmaicha, as the pure green tea note is the main focus here.

Japan Sencha Fine as a classic green tea

Japan Sencha Fine suits anyone looking for a classic green tea from Japan. The leaves produce a clear infusion with a fresh note and fine structure. This makes the tea straightforward, aromatic and pleasantly balanced.

Sencha is especially interesting because small differences in temperature and steeping time can noticeably change the taste. With slightly cooler water, the tea tastes softer, while hotter water brings out the more tart notes.

Preparation of Sencha Tea

For preparation, use about twelve grams of tea per litre of water. Pour hot water at around 70 to 80°C over the Sencha Tea and let it steep for one to two minutes. This keeps the infusion clear and allows the fine green tea notes to come through well.

If you prefer a stronger cup, you can use a little more tea. A much longer steeping time can make green tea taste more tart, so a short and precise steeping time is recommended.

Discover more Japanese green teas

If you enjoy Japanese teas with a roasted character, our Hojicha is a good discovery. It is shaped by roasted notes and tastes milder, warmer and nuttier than Sencha.

If you would like to try green tea with a warm rice note, our Genmaicha Tea is interesting. It combines Japanese green tea with roasted rice and differs clearly from the clean character of Sencha.

Storage

To preserve scent, colour and taste, store Sencha Tea in a dry, cool and well-sealed place. Avoid direct sunlight, moisture and strong surrounding odours because green tea can easily absorb smells. This keeps the tea fresh, clear and aromatic in taste.
