Sencha Yuzu is a Japanese green tea that combines the traditional Sencha green tea with the flavor of the Japanese citrus fruit, yuzu. This sour-sweet citrus, reminiscent of a mix of lemon, orange and grapefruit, gives the tea a unique refreshing and aromatic note. When mixed with yuzu, the tea gains an additional freshness, which together with the mild umami flavor of Sencha creates a harmonious drink. Sencha Yuzu is an excellent choice for those looking for a refreshing drink with a balanced flavor, combining the mild umami flavor of green tea and a lively citrus note.
Preparation instructions
Preparation instructions
To prepare sencha, use 4-5 g of tea and pour it with 60°C hot water. The leaves are only steeped long enough for the rod-shaped leaves to fully open, so there is no need to keep an eye on the clock - just observe the tea.
The second pour is done with 80°C hot water and the tea is left for only a few seconds.
The third pouring is done with 100°C hot water and also soaked for only a few seconds.
This way, we can enjoy the tea at different levels of intensity and find the flavor that suits us best.

Deček in ptica
Ko sem bil majhen, sem poleti pogosto sedel na kamniti ograji ob očetovem čajnem vrtu. Bil sem zelo tih otrok. Nekega jutra sem s sabo prinesel skodelico sveže pripravljene senche. V daljavi je pela čaplja. Takrat sem prvič opazil, da tudi čaj lahko zveni kot ptica: svetlo, hitro, z odmevom grenčine. Oče je rekel: »Sencha ti nikoli ne laže. Če si nemiren, boš to pil. Če si srečen, tudi.« To je bil prvi čaj, ki me je naučil poslušati sebe.
