jas markOrganic Kagoshima Asamushi Sencha  - Grown organically in Kagoshima, this organic asamushi-cha (light steamed green tea) sencha has a rather intense green-yellow color to it, is clear, and carries a a nice grassy aroma. Not subtle, both the aroma and taste are a bit more intense than your typical light steamed green tea. We seldom come across a light steamed green tea packing this much flavor, let alone one that is organic. Very delicious, we are confident you will enjoy this product.  As with all of our loose leaf green teas, packaged in nitrogen flushed packaging.

Available in 100gm packages.

Review comment
Just had this tea, it was great. I only took off points because the color of the brew is a darker yellow than I typically expect from an Asamushi, but besides that no real complaint.

Very pronounced flavor, but never bitter. Its one of those new breeds of Organic Sencha which can compete with non organic sencha.

Testimonials

Well, I have been tasting O-Cha.com teas for years now and my opinion about their teas cannot be just emotional. When you use their fabulous teas for years and you never get tired of them, well that means they are really super. And since this is an on line store, Kevin's support is just fantastic.
Believe to a faithful O-cha.com customer!
Thanks Kevin.

Dear Kevin,

I just wanted to let you know that I really enjoyed the powdered Sencha I ordered. As usual, the typical characteristics of Japanese green teas were all there; the grassy mellowness, vibrancy, somewhat astringent tannins and the effervescence. I would follow the directions on the package and the results would yield a perfect cup of tea. The only caveat would be that the tea does not totally dissolve. Since I am a big fan of Matcha, I thought I would give powdered sencha a try and I like it a lot. Matcha is still my favorite. But I do love powdered teas better because of the health benefits that are touted more so than just steeping the leaves. One ingests the whole leaf which in turn is healthier than just drinking the run-off, which is only yielding thirty percent of the teas polyphenols.

Once again, the shipping schedule was on time and customer service was wonderful.

Thank you for such superb and delicious products!

Thank you O-Cha for the wonderful matcha! It is a real pleasure to drink, beautiful fragrance and colour. Your site was easy to use and my tea arrived less than a week after ordering. I will definitely be back!
