Sencha (100g)

Our sencha is made from “first tea” (一番茶), or the first new leaves of the year’s growing season. This refreshing steamed green tea is grown from the Yabukita (やぶきた) cultivar by the newest generation of the Sato family, who have been farming organically for over 50 years in Shizuoka.

A brisk morning walk on a crisp new day.

100g of tea is good for 75+ mug or kyusu servings (4g/session, steeped 3+ times).

🌱 This tea is grown without synthetic fertilizers or pesticides by the third generation of the Sato family to grow organically on their farm in Shizuoka. Spent leaves are *gold* for your compost pile.
♻️ Our steel tea tins are crafted with care in Kyoto, Japan. Please reuse and recycle!
💧 3% of every tea purchase supports clean water projects, because without clean water there is no tea.

2) Use ~4g tea for ~8 oz of water in an infuser mug or kyusu.
3) Pour hot water over tea leaves.
4) Cover and steep for 90 seconds.
5) Remove infuser basket and set aside until your next steep. Enjoy this round!
6) Repeat until tea is too light for your taste.
