It's our pleasure to be able to offer the outstanding Uji sencha "Aoi",  ("Green") from Japan's oldest teashop, Tsuen Tea. This item consists of yabukita leaves from the first harvest and is Tsuen's second highest ranked sencha, the first being their San no Ma. This lightly steamed sencha (asamushi) yields a very wonderful nice grassy aroma. Here is your chance to try some of the best of what Japan has to offer in Japanese green tea, directly from the banks of the Uji river.

I just enjoyed my first infusion of the Aoi. It is a very smooth, light tea. Very nice flavor, not strong at all. I will try to use a bit more leave next time.

I have purchased this tea and the Kagoshima Sencha Sae Midori, and must say this is the better one by far. The tea taste is smooth and gentle, without an overpowering flavor. The astringency is less than the KSSM even though this was given a medium and the KSSM a mild (these should be switched). This tea is worth the extra price even though it requires an extra .2g per 1oz. The wife and co-workers all agree that this is a more enjoyable tea. Can't wait to try the Uji Asamushi Sencha Ujibashi San no Ma (Kirameki). Thank you O-Cha.

This asamushi sencha does not worth its price according to me. No aftertaste, poor flavours, I'm very disappointed.

Apparently it was my first order from that site, and I love that tea. It took severalt attempts to do brew it right. It has little grassy taste, with oily aftertaste.

Subtle asamushi with a clean mellow taste. Has a sweet grassy fragrance and very little bitterness.

I didn't like green tea, that is, until I tried the green tea from O-Cha.

My daughter had turned me on to matcha. She studies nutrition and had experienced the benefits and delights of matcha, so I decided to learn more about it. I accidentally found the green tea forum that was associated with O-Cha and began my studies. The more I learned, the more convinced I became that I had to try THIS company's green tea and matcha.

It's come to the point where I refuse to go even to the local oriental market to buy my green tea. That's how good O-Cha's products are in comparison. I now absolutely love green tea and have a cup of matcha every morning without fail - and I feel better than I have in a long time.

The teapot I bought as well as the matcha accessories have been great. The support from Kevin has been great. What else can I say?

Thanks.

Three years ago, after surviving cancer, I knew I needed to start drinking green tea. I can't remember how I came across O-Cha.com but I am so glad! This tea is unbeatable - you won't find this quality in the States. I drink matcha and sencha and your quality tea is far and above anything purchased in a store. I drink green tea 3 times a day and love it! Thank you!
