HOT ! Organic Sencha

Description

Green Tea Leaves

Found in most homes and offices, Sencha is by far the most popular tea served in Japan. New leaves are picked and immediately steamed to make Sencha as close to the fresh tea leaf as possible. It has an uncommonly refreshing natural taste and pleasing light green appearance. Enjoy it daily as Japanese people do. Organic Sencha has been produced according to the strict guidelines of the JAS (Japan Agricultural Standard) and is certified organic.
