SENCHA: THE TASTE OF JAPANESE TRADITION
Sencha is the most popular tea in Japan and also the most famous green tea in the world. Its brew has a slightly sweet and very refreshing taste, with buttery, grassy notes and a greenish-gold color. The word "sencha" means "cooked at a low temperature", which refers to the typical cooking of tea leaves, pouring hot water over dry leaves. This tea tastes best when brewed with low pH water. No. Moya Sencha 21 are grown organically on the island of Kyushu.
PROPERTIES OF SENCHA
Sencha is recommended as a morning tea because its leaves are extremely high in caffeine and are known to speed up the metabolism. Just like other Japanese green teas, it is not only a rich source of catechins, but also one of the most powerful natural antioxidants. Sencha slows down the aging process, helps get rid of toxins, lowers cholesterol, controls blood sugar and helps keep teeth healthy. Its leaves contain easily absorbed vitamin C, beta-carotene, folic acid, potassium, calcium and phosphorus. Similar to matcha tea, sencha also has a mood-enhancing, stress-relieving effect.
