This is high quality Sencha green tea from Uji in Kyoto, Japan. Sencha is highly valued as a luxury tea & used in Japanese tea ceremonies marking important family events. Japan produces some of the best green teas in the world. Sencha can only be picked at certain times of year. The leaves aren’t normally ready for harvesting in the first pick of the year, known as Ichibancha. Instead, our Sencha tea is harvested when the tea trees have only three sprouts, which is believed by generations of Japanese tea farmers to be the time when the leaves will produce Sencha tea with the most potent, fresh & relaxing aroma & taste.
