煎茶の淹れ方

HOW TO BREW SENCHA

1 | Heat fresh, filtered water until boiled.

2 | Pour water into cups to warm the cup and cool down the water. You can also use a yuzamashi water cooler.

Recommended water temperature for Sencha is 176°F (80°C). The flavor will be lighter and sweeter when brewed at lower water temperatures such as 158°F (70°C). Try different brew times and temperatures to find your preference.

3 | When it reaches your desired temperature, pour water over the tea leaves. Steep for 1-1.5 minutes. This tea can be steeped up to 3 times.

二人分の煎茶姫の淹れ方

HOW TO BREW SENCHA HIME FOR TWO

Brewing tea is best when shared. Add 2 teaspoons (6g) of Sencha Hime to your teapot and pour in 12–14oz (350–400ml) of hot water at 176°F / 80°C. Steep for 1–2 minutes, then pour evenly into two cups.

Enjoy it together as a warm, comforting cup — or if your companion prefers it chilled, let the tea cool slightly before pouring it over ice for a refreshing, vibrant brew.
