Superior Japanese Green Tea
MAIKO TEA SHOP




Sencha accounts for 75% of green tea produced in Japan. It is the most popular and common tea in Japan and served for daily drinking use.
At the tea garden (open-air tea field) buds are picked from plants fully exposed to sunlight, then are stemed and dried as they are kneaded. Sencha has a unique fresh aroma and refined astringency.
Although all Sencha contains caffeine the efficacy of the caffeine in green tea is mild in the presence of other nutrients and vitamins. Nevertheless it does revitalize and wake the drinker in a healthy manner. That is why green tea first came to Japan as a medicine and incidentally there are many Japanese proverbs that refer to its awakening effect in the morning.


Once a year the highest evaluating authority in the world of  Japanese tea holds a national tea exhibition. Our 'Shuppin Sencha' (exhibition sencha) is a blend of Sencha teas which were carefully selected and closely examined at this nationwide tea exhibition.
Please enjoy the taste of this Sencha which combines the labor of many tea farmers, who have presented the best of their crop at the national exhibition.
Along whith the typical refreshing taste of this tea please also delight in the beautiful color and shape of the emerald tea leaves.

From the beginning of spring the Japanese calendar counts 

88 days to the harvest of this tea which is called Hachiju-hachiya (88 nights). This tea from the first harvest contains the very tender buds of the plant. When affused with hot water it creates a tasty balance of mellow sweetness and light refreshing astringency.
