This is an excellent example of a premium Japanese Sencha green tea. It is refreshing and grassy with a bright finish. Grown at 600m in the finest growing region of Kyoto, this tea is a summer harvest that will convert even the most seasoned Chinese green tea enthusiast.
In Japan, in order to arrest the enzyme activity and oxidation process, green teas are steamed rather than pan-fired or baked. This process renders the leaves very vegetal and fresh.
Generally more expensive than their Chinese counterparts, Japanese teas are not as common in the North American market. This is truly an exceptional tea.
Fresh & Aromatic: This summer harvest sencha yields a refreshing cup with a clean, vegetal profile. You’ll notice aromas of spring grass and green vegetables, and a pleasant umami undertone. The taste is smooth and lively, with low bitterness – a testament to the careful steaming process that halts oxidation and locks in the tea’s natural sweetness. It’s a wonderfully refreshing green tea for any time of day.
Japanese Organic Quality: Sourced from organic tea gardens in Japan (notably in regions like Shizuoka), our Sencha is grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilisers. The leaves are picked young and steamed immediately after harvest to maintain their verdant colour and nutrients. This traditional method, combined with organic farming, results in a pure leaf teeming with goodness. By choosing our sencha, you’re supporting environmentally friendly agriculture and Genuine Tea’s mission of ethical sourcing.
Antioxidant-Rich & Nourishing: Green tea is celebrated for its health benefits, and our sencha is no exception. It’s loaded with catechins (like EGCG) known for their antioxidant activity, which help protect cells and support immunity. Studies suggest that regular green tea consumption may aid weight management and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease [Green tea cardiovascular study]. Our Sencha also provides vitamin C and amino acids naturally, contributing to overall wellness and even a calm, focused mind through a modest amount of L-theanine.
Easy to Brew, Easy to Love: Enjoy hot or chilled as iced green tea – sencha’s crisp flavour shines either way. Brew with water below boiling (about 80°C) for 1–2 minutes to extract the best flavour without bitterness. The leaves can often be infused a second time, making this tea economical and versatile. Whether you’re a green tea novice or a connoisseur, Organic Sencha offers a taste of Japan’s tea heritage in every cup.
Our Organic Sencha is a classic Japanese green tea that captures the essence of spring in each cup. Vibrant green leaves are steamed and dried to preserve their fresh grassy aroma and mild sweetness. The infusion is a sunny yellow-green, brimming with notes of sweet hay, baby spinach, and a hint of sea breeze. As a staple of Japanese tea culture, sencha offers a beautiful balance of flavour and health. Genuine Tea’s Organic Sencha brings you this experience with an emphasis on purity (certified organic leaves) and authenticity (sourced from Japan), delivering a cup that is as good for you as it is delicious.
Brew better, leaving nothing behind. Our pyramid bags are made entirely from plant-based materials. Unlike conventional tea bags that contain up to 25% plastic, ours break down in commercial compost in under 90 days and never leach microplastics into your cup.
