Sencha is the most popular type of Japanese green tea. Both green tea and black tea come from the Camelia. The difference being green tea is steamed immediately to prevent fermentation.
This Sencha Green Tea produces a lemony yellow infusion with a sweet and light juice flavour.
Unlike black tea, green tea should not be made with boiling water, use water just off the boil (80°C) and it should only be steeped for 2 – 3 minutes to avoid an overly bitter taste.
We generously fill each bag with quality un-ground ingredients, making for a satisfying full flavoured brew each and every time.

As the planet means so much to us, in 2018 we took the leap to be one of Britain’s first 100% plastic free tea companies.
Not only where our tea bags made from corn starch (and still are), so no nasty plastics in your cup, we also started packing our tea bags in a film made from fast growing eucalyptus tree cellulose, so no nasty plastic in landfill neither. Then not stopping there, we went through a change of packaging, utilising vegetable inks print on our tea boxes, closing the whole circle making it all kind to the planet!!
