China Sencha Green Tea | 16 oz bulk

Organic Sencha, grown in the sunny gardens of Zhejiang, China, this beautiful green tea offers a thoughtful Chinese interpretation of a classic Japanese style. The leaves are carefully processed into flat, shiny ribbons that unfurl beautifully in your cup, releasing a mild, smooth liquor without sharp bitterness often found in conventional green teas. It is a refreshing, clean daily brew that shines beautifully hot on a quiet morning, crisp over ice on a warm afternoon, or used as a vibrant base for your favorite botanical combinations, or kombucha.

Flavor: smooth and clean cup with a soft mouthfeel, opening into light notes of fresh spring grass and a naturally sweet, refreshing finish.

To brew a smooth, sweet cup: Green tea leaves love a gentle touch. Steep 1 to 2 teaspoons of loose leaf in water that is cooled slightly (around 180°F) for just 2 to 3 minutes. Steeping it too hot or for too long can cause bitterness, so keep it brief to let the naturally sweet flavors shine.

Re-steeping: High-quality, whole-leaf green teas like Sencha are meant to be steeped 2 to 3 times before the flavor fades.

Size: Bulk 16 oz pouch. 150-225 servings
