The most popular tea variety in Japan, sencha brews a harmonious balance of umami, sweetness, bitterness, and astringency, with a bright fragrance like a sunny field. Enjoy sencha in the morning or afternoon, at mealtime or teatime. This classic green tea fits any occasion.
Ways to Prepare
- Add one sencha teabag to a cup, pour on less-than-boiling temperature water, and wait for 1.5 minutes.
- Move the teabag around in the cup until the tea has reached the desired strength, and you're done.

Light and healthy
This tea is a very nice start to the day as long as you follow directions. Im used to drinking ginger tea that steeps for five minutes plus. If you leave the green tea bag in for too long it brings a bitterness. The delicate green tea taste comes with the short steeping time on the bag. Much better!

Fabulous cup of tea!
I'm normally not the biggest green tea drinker, usually I like black teas. However I stumbles across Ippodo on the SHOP app in my boosted shop cash stores, and im SO THANKFUL I DID. I bought a box of the sencha teabags and the variety teabags and so far the sencha is probably my favorite with the gyokuro right behind it. The sencha is a wonderful anytime tea for me. It's light and smooth but maintains a wonderful flavor throughout drinking it. Definitely a great thirst quencher for sure. I really want to get into and try Ippodo's matcha as well, however I don't have any tools or enough $ to invest in the starter kit. Hopefully soon though!

Takes me back to Kyoto
While in Kyoto last Spring, I was able to visit the main Ippodo tea store on two occasions. What a wonderful place to immerse myself in all things Japanese green tea. Upon returning to the US I was delighted to find Ippodo tea online and ordered my two favorite teas - Sencha and Hojicha. I have now ordered both twice with excellent delivery and I enjoy a cup of each every day.

Spoil yourself
Today, I had my first cup of sencha. I was going to save this tea but decided to seize the day. I’m so glad I did! It was such a treat. I’m not sure any other sencha will ever taste as good as Ippodo’s but I have no regrets. Thank you Ippodo for such a great tea!

Ippodo Sencha individual teabags are the best!!
The tea is great but I really like the individual packaging and the teabag opening and preparation experience. Definitely worth the cost.
