Light steamed Sencha has the oldest history in Sencha. And its history started in the Edo period. So you can enjoy the traditional Sencha taste with this tea. In addition, the short steaming time keeps the original leaf shape and makes the water light in color and clear. Therefore, you can enjoy the taste and aroma of the leaf itself with the tea. Furthermore, this tea gives you a bitter, astringent, clear, and umami taste. And if you want to enjoy 2nd and 3rd infusions, we recommend you use light steamed Sencha. This is because it takes time to bring out the key components of the tea leaves. So please take a little longer time to brew.
