Green Tea

Grown in Japan, our organic Japanese green tea is produced from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant, and quickly steamed or pan-fired to prevent oxidation. This process preserves the fresh tea's vibrant green color and natural antioxidants, resulting in a flavorful, healthy, and aromatic brew that’s perfect for your daily green tea ritual.

Popular Japanese green teas include Sencha, Matcha, Gyokuro, Genmaicha, and Hojicha. Sencha is a steamed green tea with a refreshing flavor and vibrant green color. Matcha is a green tea powder known for its rich umami flavor and traditional use in the Japanese tea ceremony. Gyokuro is a shade-grown green tea with a sweet, umami flavor. Genmaicha is a blend of green tea and roasted brown rice, with a nutty taste and toasty aroma. Hojicha is a roasted green tea with a smoky flavor and caramel-like notes.

Drinking organic Japanese green tea offers many health benefits. Green tea is packed with antioxidants that help protect cells from damage and promote overall health. Additionally, the catechins found in Japanese green tea may aid in weight management by boosting metabolism and promoting fat oxidation. Furthermore, Japanese tea contains the amino acid, Theanine, which promotes relaxation and reduces stress. Regular consumption of Japanese green tea can also lower the risk of disease and support your overall well-being.

All green tea contains caffeine, although the amount varies depending on the type and brewing method. Matcha and Gyokuro contain the highest amount of caffeine since they are grown in the shade. Sencha and Genmaicha contain moderate caffeine level followed by Hojicha, which is low caffeine due to its unique roasting process. However, you can generally reduce caffeine content by opting for lower brewing temperatures and shorter steeping times. In moderation, natural caffeine in green tea offers you mental clarity and focus.
