Sencha is a breakfast tea in Japan. After your first cup you will know why! A true ‘eye-opener’ which,from all the teas that I’ve ever drunk in the morning, this is coming the closest to coffee.
I would not suggest to drink it on a empty stormach as it could cause slight nausea.
Keep the brewing time under 1min, 30 sec for the first two brews. After you can go higher with the water temperature and extend the steeping time. But depends on the quality of the leafs. Some can take 5 brews. Others only 3.
