Available from Perennial Tea Room when we last checked, in the last two days. Sold from the shop’s own store; the price there is the one that counts.

Young spring and early summer leaves come together to make Japan’s most traditional loose leaf tea: sencha. This tea brews into a rich, full-bodied cup that is bright green with notes of grass and minerals. Our Sencha is steamed in the Fukamushi, or “deep-steamed” style characteristic of southern Shizuoka, and then finished with a high roasting. This high heat finishing brings out a rich aroma and lingering umami finish that is consistent even after multiple steepings. Origin: Shizuoka Cultivar:
