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. 

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!

When talking about the many types of tea, Green tea is the most common and the most recognized tea beverage and it is the easiest to find.  The primary countries that export Green Tea are Japan – lighter green teas and China – darker more robust green teas where for both countries Green Tea is a celebrated beverage!  We carry a full line of teas from both countries. We have lots of selection and the customer can choose the strength level they prefer in their tea. Much of the differences in the strength of Green Tea does come from processing of the lea leaves.  

The teas from Japan are usually milder in flavor and produce a faint tan cup of tea and are machine processed.  If you are new to the tea world – Japanese green teas are lighter on the palate and are a great place to start. The teas from China tend to be stronger and more astringent that those from Japan and are hand processed.  We pair many of our stronger flavors with the Chinese green teas. The Peach and Mint combos we have are done with a strong Gunpowder Green tea allowing the flavors to balance when making a cup of tea. We don’t want the flavor of the tea to supersede the wonderful taste of the high quality green tea it is paired with.  

Many of the tea leaves will go through a steaming or pan firing process.   This process will stop oxidation and keep them in the Green Tea Family. Then the leaves are dried in large rollers or fan belts bringing you the final distinctive product depending the tea you choose.  The tea leaves will have a beautiful green color and will have some texture and suppleness to the leaves. We carry Sencha, Dragonwell, Gunpowder and Kukicha as a few options.
