The most beloved tea in Japan. 

A beautiful everyday tea for any time of day. Rich in antioxidants and known to support focus and a calm, clear mind. Our favourite organic sencha is a blend of four green tea varieties from Kirishima, Kagoshima.

Traditional Japanese Brewing Guide

  1. Warm the tea ware: Pour boiling water into your teapot and your teacups. This warms the vessels so they don't lower the brewing temperature.
  2. Cool the water: Discard the water from the teapot into the teacups. Doing this drops the boiling water down to the ideal brewing temperature of about 75 to 80c.
  3. Add the leaves: Put your loose leaves into the warmed, empty teapot.
  4. Steep: Pour the cooled water from the cups over the leaves in the teapot. Cover and steep for the recommended time.
  5. Pour evenly: When pouring, pour a little bit into each cup at a time, going back and forth, to ensure the strength is the same in every cup. Shake out the very last drops—this is where the best flavor resides.
  6. Subsequent steepings: You can brew the same leaves 2-3 more times. For the second and third steeping, use slightly hotter water and steep for only a few seconds.
