Have you tried this lovely Japanese style green tea?

I like Newby’s Jasmine Green tea but recently tried a box of Newby’s Green Sencha tea.

According to the packaging Green Sencha tea is:

carefully plucked in early Spring. The young leaves in this green tea have been steamed in traditional Japanese style, preserving their dark green colour and delicate, slightly rice-like taste.

I thought Green Sencha tea had a nice smoky flavour without any trace of bitterness.

Usually I just dip a green tea bag in and out of the cup but Green Sencha tea can stand for a minute and remain palatable.

I still prefer Jasmine Green tea but I’ll probably buy another box of Green Sencha in a couple of months time.

Thanks for reading my blog today.
