This organic sencha has a refined taste, providing a mellow sweetness and astringency. It makes for a great tea for snack time and for serving to guests.

Ippodo's Organic Sencha

Our organic sencha is cultivated and processed under conditions that comply with the requirements for JAS organic certification, as well as meeting Ippodo standards for providing sencha's natural mellow aroma and flavor. Most of the cultivation of organic sencha is left up to nature, resulting in a different taste every year. Discovering each year's flavor is one of the delights of this tea.

Ippodo's Organic Selection

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.
