While this isn’t the best sencha powder I have had, it is quite enjoyable. Just be careful not to go overboard on the amount of powder, a slightly rounded (not heaping) spoonful (the spoon is included with the tin!) is perfect for a 6-8oz cup.
It is slightly bitter, fruity, a little earthy, and grassy. Even when it is overly strong, it isn’t bad, I’ve found it always drinkable, which is saying a lot because powdered green tea can easily become overwhelming. However, at the right balance, it makes for a tasty cup of sencha. Not to mention it is quite easy to make.
