Japanese teas are popular because people like the aromas, flavors, and even the elevated levels of antioxidants. We offer Yanagi as a value-based alternative to some of the more costly greens, so you may enjoy Sencha flavors more often.

Details:Our supplier from Uji, 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.
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.
Flavors:Steamed leaf vegetables like spinach or tatsoi with some roasted flavors.
