One of our most popular green teas is a blend of Chinese Sencha, bits of lemon peel and ginger. Very aromatic, light and refreshing whether you drink it hot or over ice.
Tea Type/Origin
The green tea in this blend, known as Sencha, originates from China. What makes Sencha so unique is that the tea leaves are initially steamed vs. pan fried, which results in a greener color and more vegetal (grassy) flavor.Ingredients
Full leaf green tea, sunflower, ginger, lemon peel and natural flavors.Brewing
Brew 1 teaspoon loose tea in hot water (180 – 212˚F) for 3 minutes.
Thanks to Teajo for a very generous sample of this!
Well, it looks like it’s going to be a ginger day for me and my teas. This is a nice solid green, but unfortuntately I’m getting a little more lemon here than ginger. The green base is smooth, though, and is not at all vegetal. It would be great for someone who likes green tea but is turned off by the REALLY green teas like gyokuru.
Overall not a bad flavored green. Nice, mellow, and great for lemon lovers.
