It's our pleasure to be able to offer the outstanding handpicked Uji sencha "Ujibashi San no Ma", from Japan's oldest teashop, Tsuen Tea. This item, (released as "Kirameki" when offered as shincha in the spring), is picked by hand using only the top select 100% Yabukita leaves from the first harvest. It is harvested in a way no machine can ever hope to match. 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.

With similar responses to those before, I found the spring shincha "Kirameki" to be a very high quality, and with the release of the "Ujibashi San no Ma", the quality continues. The taste is refreshing, elegant and sweet, not at all astringent. While the price is high, the quality is exceptional. I would recommend drinking this tea at anytime of the day!

I also advise that you need to steep this tea at a much lower temperature than a normal sencha, around 65C, as it tends to lend itself to be brewed almost like a gyokuro.

The shincha version (Kirameki) was my favorite shincha of 2008. The sencha version carries on the legacy. Wonderful and grassy aroma that lingers in the mouth. It is high priced, but worth every cent.

I had the last two years the shincha version of this light steamed (asamushi) sencha and I am now happy to be able to buy this sencha during the whole year.
Easy to brew, nice flavor and a very good value: its price is indeed quite high, but the quality is also high.

This is a grassy sencha that isn't overpowering -- and very elegant.

If you're looking for a sencha with real elegance, this is the one. The flavor has many nuances. Beautiful tea.

Hello,
You sent a message, to my husband asking if everything was okay with his tea order. He bought two types of matcha and a matcha whisk for me as a Christmas gift and I love it!

I just wanted to let you know in case he didn't relay that information. I will definitely be considering ordering from you when my supply is finished!
Thanks so much for your service and great product.
Sincerely,
Barbara W

Hey Kevin,

I've ordered many different products from O-Cha.com and have blown away! The Sencha and Gyokuro I've tried have been outstanding and at very good prices. I'm always amazed by the fast shipping (about four days from Japan to Canada)!

Will be ordering more very soon!
Griff
