This premium Japanese green tea is made from the first leaves of the season, young leaves hand-picked at their peak. In a unique Japanese process, the freshly plucked leaves are briefly steamed to capture their complex flavor and emerald green color, then rolled into curls and kiln-dried. In Japan, Sencha is a prized tea served in high-class restaurants and at home to make guests feel welcome and honored. Stimulating yet soothing, Sencha has long been used by Zen monks to promote mental clarity and calm during prolonged meditation. Unlike Indian or Chinese green teas on the market, Mitoku Sencha is considered medicinal due to its high concentration of catechins.
