Fukamushi Sencha Premium

Fukamushi Sencha is Sencha that goes through a “deep steaming” process.  In general, mid to lower grade Sencha is used in the process.  By deep steaming the Sencha, the tealeaves break, causing fewer whole leaves, with smaller bits of “broken” tea, meaning the leaf itself is not as good looking as Sencha.  Although this may seem counter productive, the results are quite positive.  Because the tealeaves are “broken”, the tea is absorbed faster, the taste is richer than that of Sencha of the same grade, more full-bodied, and the color of the tea is much deeper.

 Our Premium Fukamushi Sencha does not use the middle to lower grade tealeaves, but instead uses young tealeaves specially grown to produce this outstanding blend of Fukamushi Sencha.    The taste is full body, mellow and sweet, with an aroma that is ever so fresh but not too grassy.  In fact, it reminds many of the ocean more than of the grassy hills.

This is an excellent tea for everyday drinking, and is a high value for price item.
