Japanese Sencha Fukujyu

Sencha Fukujyu is a truly exceptional green tea, a testament to the meticulous craftsmanship and dedication of Japanese tea farmers. This premium Sencha hails from the fertile slopes of Mount Fuji in Shizuoka, a region renowned for producing over half of Japan’s tea.

What sets Sencha Fukujyu apart from other Sencha teas lies in its careful processing. The tea leaves undergo a gentle steaming process, followed by meticulous rolling and drying. This delicate handling preserves the tea’s delicate structure and vibrant green colour.

This particular Sencha is harvested in autumn, a time when the tea plant’s energy has matured, resulting in a deeper, more complex flavour profile. The leaves are meticulously hand-sorted to remove any stems or broken pieces, ensuring the highest quality and consistency.

The infusion of Sencha Fukujyu is a shimmering, light olive-green, reflecting the tea’s delicate nature. The taste is distinct, with a pronounced umami note that lingers on the palate. This robust character makes it an ideal choice for those who appreciate a strong, full-bodied green tea.
