A little about: Japanese Green Tea

The first teas grown in Japan were originally from Chinese seed, planted by Buddhist monks in 805 AD. All Japanese teas are green. Gyokuro is the very best Japanese green tea and, like Tencha, is powdered tea from leaves grown in the shade, giving a mild sweetness due to its lower tanin content. Tencha is made from larger leaves to produce Matcha when powdered. Sencha is Japan's most popular tea for general consumption.
