Sencha

Sencha is steamed green tea from the first harvest and the most commonly used tea in Japan. The tea is originally not shaded, in recent years there has been a trend to shade Sencha before harvesting. Sencha has a slightly astringent, sweet and expressive taste. However, depending on price, steaming time and growing area, the taste can vary completely.
