Japanese Sencha tea is grown in the West Lake Region of the Zhejiang Province of China. Zhejiang is the leading producer in China at around 20% and the world's largest exporter of green tea (45% approximately of world trade as of 1990). Zhejiang's most well known for producing tea flavors such as Gunpowder, Mei Longjing and green leaf scented Jasmine. The base tea is a China Green "Sencha-style" leaf. The CO2 process is most palpable on this style of leaf in that the finished product maintains the original leaf appearance and green cup quality.

You will note that this Japanese Sencha decaffeinated tea is tightly rolled and has needle-shaped leaves. This traditional Japanese green tea is decaffeinated using a process that does not detract from the tea's health benefits. The flavor will delight you with a perfect balance of sweetness and astringency.

Like most Japanese tea, the flavor is reminiscent of seaweed, or a grassy flavor because of its vegetal notes. Japanese Sencha decaf promises an excellent clean finish.

This loose-leaf tea should steep at 170 degrees for 1-2 minutes using 1 teaspoon of tea for every 6oz of water. From there, you can adjust the amounts of tea according to your taste. It is acceptable to re-steep to make another cup of tea. Decaffeinated Japanese Sencha tea is superb hot or chilled.

This gourmet green tea is in loose leaf form and will ship with a free tea ball infuser. Limit one free infuser per order.
