Fukamushi Sencha Well-Roasted

A delicious sencha exhibiting toastier earthy flavor and floral undertones due to longer roasting.

Description:

Fukamushi Sencha is a type of Japanese green tea that stands out for its unique processing method involving an extended steaming time. “Fukamushi” translates to “deep steamed” in Japanese, distinguishing this sencha from other varieties due to its longer steaming process.

During the production of our Fukamushi Sencha, the tea leaves are steamed for an extended period, much longer than a regular Sencha. This extended steaming breaks down the tea leaves more finely, resulting in a more effective infusion.

The longer steaming process also affects the taste, aroma, and appearance of Fukamushi Sencha. It produces a vivid green infusion and bold flavor that may pleasantly surprise you if you are more familiar with green teas from other parts of the world. The tea boasts a more robust flavor with a full-bodied taste, a delightful balance between sweetness and a hint of astringency. Our Fukamushi Sencha presents a rich, grassy aroma accompanied by a deep green color in your cup.

The fine texture of Fukamushi Sencha makes it prone to infusing quickly, requiring shorter steeping times than regular Sencha. We suggest you add water before it begins to boil to achieve the best taste. Fukamushi Sencha is not only appreciated for its unique flavor and vibrant color, but also the potential health benefits, such as high concentrations of antioxidants and polyphenols.

Fukamushi Sencha’s popularity has grown both domestically in Japan and internationally among green tea enthusiasts looking for a distinctive and flavorful tea-drinking experience that showcases the characteristics of Japanese tea craftsmanship.
