Japan Tea Road Premium Sencha Blend 50 Gram

We are proud to introduce Tea Road's own Premium Sencha blend, made of the best first flush spring 2026 leaves.

Having tasted more than 100 Sencha teas over time it is clear that Sencha is a bit of a jungle.   Unlike the shaded Gyokuro and Kabusecha teas that are most often delicious, the Sencha teas spand from the crispy, rich and sligtly sweet teas with good umami notes, to the bitter and astringent teas that you try to forget.

We therefore engaged with a Japanese wholeseller and asked for a blend of premium first flush spring leaves.  The result is this delicate, rich and complex flavor with strong umami notes.  

Because the flavor is quite rich we suggest that you brew it at only 60-65 degrees for 60 seconds and raise the temperature a bit at the later brews.

Since this is an experiment and since getting our own blend is not cheap, we have decided to sell the Tea Road Premium Sencha Blend in 50 gram bags to allow more people to try at reasonable price.

Enjoy!
