Description
Sencha Fukujyu the beating heart of Japanese tea culture, Sencha is by far the most popular tea in Japan.
Speed is the key to its secrets, the leaves being steamed soon after plucking to seal the flavours and stop fermentation.
A verdant emerald green leaf belies a delicate fresh grassy flavour held within a slightly astringent yet perceptible sweetish structure, combining to deliver a refreshing brew that accounts for its cherished position.
A lively and light tannic aftertaste, with hints of hay on the nose, confirm Sencha Fukujya’s reputation as a beverage to boost health and vitality.
An essential tea for anyone wishing to explore the culture and tastes these islands have to offer.
Use freshly boiled water that has been allowed to cool for one minute. Then pour, leaving the leaf to brew for one to two minutes.
The leaves have the added bonus that they can be used for several brews, with each infusion revealing a subtly different liquor.
