煎茶の淹れ方

Step 1 Pour boiling water into a cup or yuzamashi (water cooler) to adjust the water temperature. Recommended water temperature for Sencha is 176°F (80°C).

Tip: Pouring hot water into a separate cup will reduce the temperature by 10°C (20°F)

Step 2 Add one teaspoon of Sencha into your teapot to brew 8oz (1 cup) of tea. Add more for a bolder cup.

Step 3 Pour the water into the teapot and steep for 1-1.5 mins. Resteep 2-3 times and experiment with temperature + time to find your preference. Enjoy!

How many teaspoon (tsp) is needed to brew a cup of tea and How much caffeine is there per cup of tea?

Recommended is approximately 1 to 2 teaspoons for every 8 oz of water but we encourage to experiment with the tea-to-water ratio to match your preference. Sencha has approx 16 mg caffeine/g, more extracted with higher temp and longer steeping.

How many times can this tea be re-steeped and How many servings or cup of tea can this whole tea tin (100g) make?

You can re-steep it up to 3 times depending on your taste preference. Slightly increase the water temperature with each successive steeping for best results. Get about 50 cups from one tea tin, potentially more since it can be resteeped.

Is there an expiration & manufacture or pick date on the product?

You can find the best-before date on the kraft paper pouch located inside the airtight tea tin where the tea is packaged.

Is this tea tested for mycotoxins?

Yes, our teas are tested for mycotoxins, as well as heavy metals, pesticides, and radiation. We work with family farms in Japan that follow strict traditional farming practices and natural cultivation methods to ensure quality in every cup.

Why are the tea leaves crumbled?

Our green teas are deep-steamed (Fukamushi), a traditional Japanese method that makes the leaves more delicate but enhances flavor, aroma, and richness compared to regular green tea.
