Sencha Green Tea - Organic

Ingredients: Organic Sencha Fuji green tea (Fukamushi deep steamed)
Origin: Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan

Premium hand harvested Japanese Sencha with a refreshing aroma and a clean, harmonious balance of sweet and bitter flavours. Soothing, antioxidant and mild anti-drowsy properties.

Our Sencha green tea is deep steamed in the traditional Japanese method called "Fukamushi" which steams the leaves generally twice as long as standard Sencha, resulting in a leaf that is more rich in Umami and less bitterness.

Sencha green tea is valued for its clean taste and balanced, gentle effects. Compared to stronger teas, it offers moderate caffeine alongside naturally occurring L-theanine, an amino acid that promotes a calm, focused state. This combination is often described as “alert but relaxed,” without the jitteriness associated with higher-caffeine drinks.

Reported benefits of drinking sencha include:

• Steady energy & mental clarity – thanks to the synergy of caffeine and L-theanine
• Calm focus & stress support – L-theanine may help promote relaxation without drowsiness
• Antioxidant support – rich in catechins like EGCG, which help combat oxidative stress
• Metabolic & digestive support – traditionally enjoyed after meals for lightness and balance
• Heart & overall wellness support – linked to general cardiovascular and longevity benefits in tea-drinking cultures

Overall, sencha is appreciated as a daily, grounding tea that gently supports both mind and body while remaining refreshing and easy to drink.

Brewing recommendations: Pour freshly boiled water (80 degrees Celsius) over 1-2 teaspoons tea leaves and let steep for 30-90 seconds. Strain leaves and enjoy. Sencha can be steamed multiple times - up to 4 brews. To do so, slightly increase the water temperature and steep time.
