Sencha

Product Description

Go green, with our signature Sencha green tea, selected for its strength, subtle sweetness & rich, refreshing taste. We've sourced our high quality Sencha from China, where the technique of steaming the leaves to stop the oxidation process first originated. A good Sencha will have all the dewy freshness of a bright spring morning & a slightly savoury smoothness
- a little like steamed green mange-tout, generously coated in melted butter. Known to be high in antioxidants, green tea has found fame as a cure-all health elixir: reputed to boost weight loss, reduce cholesterol, & combat all sorts of ailments. Far too often, green tea is over-brewed, becoming tannic & bitter. The trick is to brew the tea lightly, allowing the boiled water to cool for about five minutes before pouring. The result is a lush, verdant brew which beats a bowl of broccoli any day.
