PREMIUM SHIMIZU SENCHA TEA TIN — ORGANIC JAPANESE GREEN TEA
From the base of the famous Mt. Fuji comes our gorgeous, high-grade Shimizu Sencha green tea. The premium price for our Shimizu sencha tea tin reflects the loose leaf’s regional speciality, orthodox harvesting, and quality taste. Our sencha boasts a smooth toasty flavour that stems from the green tea’s unique steaming and oxidation process under full sunlight. Ideal on its own at any time of day.
A refreshingly brisk aroma accompanies this bright green tea! The kneaded loose leaves come from Shizuoka, a prefecture that’s famous for producing the highest-quality Japanese green tea. The prefecture’s elevated terroir is perfect for cultivating sencha. Moreover, thanks to its close proximity to Mt. Fuji, the sencha that grows in Shizuoka reaps the benefits of the nutrient-rich soil. Furthermore, the mountain’s water run-off is similarly bursting with natural minerals. In turn, these minerals filter into the region’s tea plantations.
Our Shimizu loose leaf doubles as a luxurious gift. Looking for a top-up? The Tea Centre also retails this tea in loose leaf pouches. On the lookout for other green teas? We suggest trying shaded green teas like Gyokuro or our uniquely pan-roasted Hojicha loose leaf.
