Sencha Tea Caddy
Sencha Tea Caddy
煎茶
Grown throughout the country, Sencha is Japan's most popular style of green tea. The leaves are freshly picked and steamed, halting their natural oxidation and encouraging a rich, green colour. They then go through several stages of precise rolling and drying before the tea is finished. Our Sencha is crafted by tea master Hiromi Wada, from the banks of the Sasama River in Shizuoka, Japan's largest region for tea cultivation. The terroir here is rich and fertile, ensuring an authentic, umami-rich flavour.

- So glad I treated myselfI love Sencha. It really is one of my favourites always invigorating and fresh.
I've enjoyed many brands but I decided to treat myself to a Jing caddy the other day and now I don't think I can ever go back to the others... superb
