Yanagi Premium Green

Japanese teas are popular because people like the aromas, flavors, and even the elevated levels of anti-oxidants. We offer Yanagi as inexpensive alternative to some of the more costly greens, so you can enjoy Sencha flavors at a lower price.

About Yanagi Premium Green

Dry Leaves	These are large green leaves, mostly medium green but with some lighter colored stalks. This tea looks like Sencha, but larger. That is because it is the 'rejects' from the Sencha made in May.
Liquor	The liquor is a pale light green, similar to most Senchas but light. The big leaves account for the lighter color.
Aroma	Yanagi's aroma is a lighter version of most Sencha: spinach and nori seaweed with the backnotes of toast. This is contrast to a tea it might be confused with: Bancha. However Yanagi has none of the grassy aromas found in Bancha. This is because it is made in the Spring like senchas. Bancha is made later.
Caffeine Level	Caffeinated
Body	This a medium bodied green tea.
Flavors	Steamed leaf vegtables like spinach or tatsoi with some roast flavors.
Brewing Time	1 to 2 minutes
Brewing Temperature	160° F

Our Review

Our supplier from Uji, in Japan recommended that we try this tea. It is made at the same time as high quality Sencha, however it is not considered acceptable as a Sencha. It represents a good value.
