We are happy to offer this organic sencha as part of our sencha selection. It features a balance of sweetness, umami, and astringency in a medium-full character tea. Whether served in the morning for a first cup of the day, or at teatime with sweets, this tea is great for everyday sencha enjoyment.

Ranking outside of our regular lineup, this limited tea changes character with every release.

Our organic teas are produced in the Kyoto tea production region and are certified organic by the JAS. (The USDA recognizes JAS organic certification as an equivalent standard to USDA organic certification.) We have selected each organic variety to meet Ippodo standards for authentic Japanese green tea flavor, aroma, and color. Additionally, compared to our other tea blends, the weather and other growing factors lead to greater differences in the character of our organic teas every year. Discovering this year's unique characteristics is one of the delights of these teas.
