LEAF
SENCHA
Japan’s most common green tea.
Grown under full sunlight, the leaves are steamed, rolled, and dried to create a clean, refreshing taste with a balanced umami and gentle astringency.
It is enjoyed daily across Japan.
KUKICHA
A tea made primarily from the stems separated during tea processing.
It offers a mild sweetness and fresh aroma, with a lighter, cleaner taste than leaf-based teas.
Low in bitterness and easy to drink, it pairs well with meals.
HOJICHA
A roasted tea known for its warm, toasty aroma and gentle flavor.
Roasting softens bitterness and astringency, resulting in a smooth, refreshing finish.
Lower in caffeine, it is suitable for all ages and occasions.
GENMAICHA
A blend of sencha and roasted brown rice.
The nutty aroma of the rice combines with the clean taste of green tea, creating a comforting and well-balanced flavor.
Popular across generations for its approachable character.
WAKOUCHA
A black tea made from Japanese tea leaves.
Through full oxidation, it develops a gentle aroma and color distinct from green tea.
Compared to overseas black teas, it is lower in astringency and enjoyable without milk or sugar.
