How To Brew Sencha Green Tea (8.4oz/250ml Serving 3 people). Pour boiled water into a cup(s) to warm the cup as well as to measure the serving amount.
Spoon tea leaves into the teapot. A tablespoon (3g) serves about 8oz. Adjust the amount by the size of the spoon. Pour water into the teapot. Steeping time depends on the quality and type of sencha.
Steep 1 minute or more for higher grades, 30 seconds for deep steamed or regular sencha. Do not shake the teapot while waiting. Gently pour the tea into a teacup(s). Do not pour all at once, rather pour it in several consecutive pours to ensure the water circulates through all the leaves. Tap out any remaining drops so no water remains in the teapot.Orders placed after Friday 3pm will be dispatched on Monday.
