Sencha Housen Tea

Sencha Housen, from Kyoto’s Ippodo Tea, offers a gentle sweetness, bright fragrance, and mellow aftertaste—hallmarks of the house’s premium sencha blends. Balanced with more umami and sweetness than astringency, this tea is versatile enough for mornings, teatime, or any moment calling for an aromatic and satisfying green tea. Unlike Gyokuro, Sencha is grown in direct sunshine and harvested twice a year, giving it a refreshing clarity and balance.
