Category: Newby Teas

The young spring leaves in our Green Sencha have been steamed in the traditional Japanese style. This process prevents oxidisation and preserves the dark green colour and delicate taste of the flat, needle-like leaves. With its subtle hint of rice, Green Sencha is a multi-sensory embodiment of the Orient.

Every blend in the Heritage Collection honours the origins of the world’s finest tea.

Emma ★★★★★

I steeped these leaves for just two minutes and the liquor came out that brilliant jade color you expect from a proper sencha. The flat leaves unfurl beautifully and the taste is clean and grassy without any bitterness.

David ★★★★★

I’ve brewed a lot of greens, but this one holds its grassy sweetness even after the tea cools—that traditional steaming really locks in something delicate. The leaves stay dark and flat, and one steeping treats you to a smooth, savory finish that’s hard to put down.

Emily ★★★★★

The flat leaves brew up a deep, vivid green that honestly looks as fresh as the spring harvest, and the taste stays delicate without any bitterness creeping in. I've been reaching for this every afternoon since it arrived.
