Choose options
Introducing JAS certified organic "sencha" green tea powder from Shizuoka prefecture. Each pack contains 30g, or about 30 servings. Crafted from tea leaves nurtured with pure water and human care in the pristine mountain air of Shizuoka, this sencha green tea powder is organically derived from all-natural tea plants cultivated without the use of pesticides or chemical fertilizers. Sencha is made from the plants grown in direct sunlight, giving it a distinct and stronger flavor than matcha.
Organic-certified teas account for only 3% of total tea production, and this product takes it a step further as only the best tea leaves are hand-selected. The meticulous attention to detail ensures a consistent, premium green tea. Japanese green tea is renowned for its diverse array of nutrients, including catechins with antioxidant properties, potassium, and dietary fiber supporting digestive health, theanine recognized for its calming and focus-boosting effects, along with vitamin C and minerals. Unlike hot water extraction, which captures only around 30% of the nutritional essence from tea leaves, this powder is crafted in a way that enables a complete intake of these beneficial elements.
Sencha has a refreshing yet intense taste with a deep aroma. You can adjust the concentration to your liking. All you need is hot or cold water and a cup, no need for a tea pot. Suitable for home use and convenient for on-the-go, whether at work, school, or during outdoor activities like camping.
✔ Free from chemical fertilizers, pesticides, antibiotics, preservatives, chemical insecticides, food additives, synthetic fragrances, and other nasties.
✔ Cultivated in soil that has been pesticide-free for over 30 years.
✔ Only uses hand-picked new tea leaves.
✔ Made using the entire tea leaf unlike typical powdered tea made from trimmings.
✔ Processed into an easily soluble powder using a unique manufacturing method without the use of dextrin.

The tea leaves for this product were grown in a beautiful tea plantation located in the mountains at an altitude of 600 meters in Shizuoka Prefecture. The environment with short hours of sunlight and large temperature differences between morning and evening temperatures produces tea leaves with a rich flavor and aroma. The small family farmers who grew these tea leaves have been growing tea naturally on this land for over 30 years. The whole family handpicks the tea leaves so as not to damage the carefully nurtured, high-quality leaves.
