Mt. Fuji Sencha Loose Tea Leaves
Fresh, crisp, classic sencha from the Mt. Fuji region.
Sencha is the green tea most people in Japan drink every day. These loose leaves come from the Mt. Fuji region, where cool mountain air and clean water help the tea develop a fresh, vivid character.
Brewed well, it has a fresh green aroma, a crisp body and a clean, refreshing finish with a touch of natural sweetness. It is the ideal tea with meals and a bright, uplifting cup any time of day. In summer, try it cold brewed for an incredibly smooth, sweet iced tea.
Every purchase supports the Japanese tea farmers we work with, many of them family-run farms where the craft has been passed down for generations. You get a better cup, and they get a reason to keep growing.
