Makes me think of spring

I have ordered Sencha green tea from Matcha.com previously which show how much I like it. It has a wonderful flavor, makes me think of spring. It is very refreshing and has such a clean feel in the mouth. Love it! It also has a lovely light greenish, gold color that is beautiful to look at. I always drink it plain because it is so tasty by itself

High Quality Sencha

I've been drinking this in combination after my matcha. It's amazing for a lower caffeine content in the late mornings and also offers a fresh farm-direct quality and flavor!

My kind of tea

I don’t like flavored tea. I like really good quality green tea. I drink Matcha and I drink oolong and I drink sencha. I bought this looseleaf as something kind of fun to play with in the spring. It is beautiful to look at and makes a terrific cup of tea. I am careful to not put Water that is too hot so it does not turn bitter. And it’s just perfect. Love the color love the taste love that it is just green tea!
