Maruyama Tea Sencha Japanese Green Tea 100g

Sen means “infuse”, and sencha is tea that is infused in water. Sencha was invented in the 18th century, and before then, all tea was lower-grade bancha (tea made from older leaves, sometimes roasted) or matcha, which is described above. These days most teas are infused, but back then, sencha’s name set it apart from the usual tea-whisking technique.

How To Use
Loose leaf sencha green tea tends to have a fresher, more authentic taste than bagged varieties.
• Add a pinch of sencha green tea directly to a cup or to a tea strainer in a tea pot.
• Use approximately 80°C water to brew the tea.
• Allow the tea to infuse for one minute, then enjoy.
