Blenders Notes: Blue Clouds Over Dakota:
Sencha Green tea can be sourced from both China and Japan.  Contrary to Japan, China has refined the art of processing tea leaves in many different ways – from roasted, rolled oolong tea, to the smoke of Lapsang – by techniques handed down through the generations. Chinese Green Teas are generally sweeter with a toasty lively, and bursting with delicate spring flavour. Japanese ones are often vegetal and brisker, often bitter if over-brewed. It is especially evident in the Sencha Green Tea.
In the processing of Chinese green tea, the leaves become slightly fermented. … Instead, Japanese green tea tends to taste sweeter than Chinese green tea. (Contrarily, Japanese green tea also contains more chlorophyll, which some green tea drinkers find too “grassy” for their tastes.). Japanese green teas are traditionally steamed, while the Chinese ones are pan-fired. Steaming gives a different flavor profile and color. Moreover, steaming or pan-firing influence the amount of EGCG, a catechin abundantly found in green tea. Furthermore, Japanese green teas are generally not withered, which is an important step in producing Chinese teas.Â
Another popular Green Tea and is a stellar seller over the other teas.  We have combined Chinese Sencha Green Tea with pieces of Blueberry and French Lavender Flowers. Chinese Sencha Green is a very light green tea that has been steamed and slightly flattened and dried.  It has great aromatics picking up a floral taste of the lavender and the tartness of Blueberry. This is one of the first teas we blended and is still an awesome seller if you are looking for a more floral tea over a fruity tea. Great choice if you are new to tea!
