Ginger Green 

Ginger wakes up your taste buds to this outstanding Japanese-style Sencha. Full of volatile oils and other healthy
compounds ginger has been prized the world over for its nourishing and therapeutic qualities for millennia. This tea is based on a Sencha-style green tea from Hunan Province in South Eastern China. In Hunan, Sencha is manufactured according to Japanese standards in which the freshly plucked leaves are steamed prior to processing.

Hunan Province/China

Chinese production of traditionally foreign tea grades:
In recent years, a select number of Chinese manufacturers have begun to produce exceptional examples of teas traditionally associated with other tea producing regions, most notably Japan, i.e. Sencha. While this may seem counterintuitive, the practice is essentially the same as that of “New World” vineyards growing traditionally “Old World” grape varieties. (Think of Cabernet Sauvignon, a French grape, attaining near legendary status at the hands of Australian vintners.)

The leaf is pan-fried - a process that gives the tea its distinctive glossy looks and feels then it's expertly blended and flavoured. Like all green teas, Sencha is known to be exceptionally high in antioxidants and polyphenols As such, recent scientific research appears to indicate that it may have an impact in the prevention of certain types of cancers.

We insist in using only natural flavouring oils, high quality tea tastes good and natural oils do not overpower the great taste of high-grade tea, also natural flavours leave no aftertaste giving the tea a clean and true character. (The practice for some making flavoured tea is to use overpowering artificial flavouring, which may be an indicator of a covered up lower quality tea).
Natural flavours tend to be more delicate and subtle, most find this a refreshing change and is one of the desired qualities of our naturally flavoured teas.
When finished, Sencha is known for its dark green, needle-shaped leaf, and pale green, yellowish liquor.

This fantastic blend of all-natural ginger flavouring has a pungent, soothing cup and sweet finish its invigorating to drink any time of day.
