Steaming: After harvesting, the tea leaves undergo a brief steaming process to halt oxidation, preserving the vibrant green color and fresh flavor.
Rolling: The steamed leaves are then rolled to shape them into thin, needle-like leaves.
Drying: The rolled leaves are dried to remove excess moisture and prepare the tea for packaging.
Flavor Profile: Premium Sencha green tea offers a delicate, grassy flavor with a slightly sweet and vegetal taste. It is known for its pleasant umami notes.
