Sencha
Rich in umami, nutrients and catechins and considered the queen of Japanese green tea, sencha can vary from a mild and sweet infusion to one with a more bitter profile, allowing this steamed and rolled tea to offer something for everyone. Our carefully curated selection of fresh, grassy senchas offers you a comprehensive spectrum of some of the most important and exciting green teas from all over Japan, sourced directly from award-winning farms and tested in a German lab.
Karigane Sencha
Karigane, often called the "tea of tea farmers" due to their excellent value for money, refers to the fine green teas obtained from high-quality stems, leaf veins and small leaf portions of select senchas and gyokuros. As such, they are naturally mild and low in caffeine.
