How to Brew Sencha

Use hot water cooled to about 80°C / 176°F and steep for 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Pour into a cup and enjoy. For iced sencha, pour the brewed tea over ice.
Sencha vs. Gyokuro: What’s the Difference?
The biggest difference between sencha and gyokuro is how the tea leaves are grown. Gyokuro is shaded before harvest, which creates a deeper umami and smoother sweetness. Sencha is grown with more sunlight, giving it a brighter aroma and a refreshing balance.
You want a refreshing Japanese green tea that is easy to enjoy every day. Sencha is clean, aromatic, and versatile.
You want deeper umami, a smoother mouthfeel, and a more luxurious tea experience. Gyokuro is best enjoyed slowly.
