Japanese Sencha Green Tea
Japan Sencha is a traditional green tea of excellent quality with big leaves, a bright cup and the Japanese taste you expect. Green teas have been neither fermented nor withered. Instead, the leaves are simply sterilized in steam, hot air, or hot pans to prevent fermentation. The leaves are picked in spring therefore producing a green color leaf and light, pale, greenish-yellow sparkling liquor often with considerable aroma, body and flavor. This tea is distinct because of its slight vegetal notes.
