This Sencha is grown by our long-time tea supplier, Hoshino Seichaen, located on Kyushu Island in southern Japan. The leaves are steamed and dried in several stages, producing a soft and full-bodied tea with notes of grass and seaweed. Sencha Midori is from a single cultivar called Yabukita.

What characterises a fine quality sencha is a dark green fine leaf.

Bright, clear, fresh flavour.

Sencha Midori comes in a 100g bag, pre-packaged in Japan to preserve freshness.

Ingredients: green tea.

Preparation

Sencha Midori is brewed in a small preheated jug, possibly a glass jug, so that you can see the beautiful colour.
The water must not boil for a long time, as you boil off the oxygen of the water.

Use 1 tsp. tea with top per cup.

Pour over the leaves with water at about 80 degrees and you get the finest flavor if the leaves float freely in a spacious strainer or freely in a small jug. After approx. 1 min., you can start to see the "umami cloud" in the tea. It is the one that gives sweetness and umami, which also produces the "cloud" of delicate and natural aromas in the tea.

Brew time:

1st brew: 2 minutes
2 .+ 3rd brew: 30-40 sec.
The leaves can be used 2 – 3 times.

In the case of a small jug, it may mean Japanese Kyusu teapot with internal strainer or HARIO glass teapot. The advantage of the small jug is that you brew 2-3 cups at a time, after which you add more tempered water when you are ready for the next cup. In this way, you utilize the potential of the leaves, by brewing several times, and you get the experience of a fresh cup of tea.

The tea should be kept cool, preferably in a refrigerator.
