  • Sencha Shiro Nagoya

    Japanese Green Teas are JONA* certified Organic
    Sencha is the most well-known variety of green tea and the most popular kind in Japan. To produce sencha, tea leaves are steamed within a few hours after harvest, thus stopping the oxidation process, and then rolled into needles, thus making sure that the leaves’ natural green colour is preserved. This process also helps the leaves retain their fragrance and components.
    Sencha Shiro Nagoya is intense with a long finish.

  • Houjicha Shiro Iwakuni

    Japanese Green Teas are JONA* certified Organic
    Houjicha teas have a light- to reddish-brown appearance and are less astringent due to losing catechins during the high-temperature roasting process. The roasted flavours are extracted and dominate this blend: the roasting replaces the vegetative tones of standard green tea with a toasty, slightly caramel-like flavour. The roasting process used to make Houjicha also lowers the amount of caffeine in the tea. Because of its mildness, Houjicha is a popular tea to serve during an evening meal before or after going to sleep and is preferred by children and the elderly.
    Houjicha Siro Iwakuni is soft and sweet and can be drunk hot or cold.
