type: green

origin: japan

variety: sencha

ingredients: green tea

caffeine: medium

price level: $$$$

Light and brisk Japanese monks were writing about tea in the 9th century, but the world had to wait until 1740 for Sencha, when a tea merchant named Nagatani perfected a new process of steaming, rolling and heat-drying green tea. The result? An emerald-green tea that's refreshing and smooth. No wonder it's Japan's most popular drink. (MK Kosher)

    This reminds me of a combination of freshly mowed lawn and seaweed. It has a rich flavor that is perfect for a sencha. I really like this one.

    Delightful tea with a light seaweed flavor and slight sweetness.

    Delicious, light and refreshing to start the day. It has a sweet seaweed taste, no bitterness at all. It is very enjoyable tea to be re steeped, first cup for 2 minutes it gives a more earthy vibe, the second one for 3 minutes is where all the sweetness reveals itself.
