Japanese Sencha Green Tea: Your FAQ Guide


We've gathered the most frequently asked questions your customers might ask!

What is the Production Process for Sencha Green Tea?

Sencha Green Tea comes from the Camellia sinensis plant and is grown primarily in Japan. The tea leaves are harvested in late spring and then steamed to prevent oxidation. This step keeps the leaves green and helps maintain the unique properties of this tea. The leaves are then rolled, shaped, and dried. Finally, they are sorted into different grades, depending on quality and taste.

What Makes Sencha Green Tea Unique?

Sencha Green Tea is known for its balanced flavour profile combining sweetness, bitterness, and a refreshing umami taste. The tea's distinctive flavour depends on several factors - the tea leaves quality, the harvest timing, and the steaming process. The tea's bright green colour and high antioxidant content make it a popular choice among tea enthusiasts.

What are the Health Benefits of Sencha Green Tea?

Sencha Green Tea is rich in antioxidants, especially catechins, which are believed to have powerful effects on health. Drinking this tea may help reduce the risk of heart disease and certain types of cancer. Additional benefits include improving mental alertness and helping with weight management. While Sencha Green Tea has many potential health benefits, it should not replace a balanced diet and regular medical check-ups.
