Paul Harney had a simple idea: take two of Japan's most celebrated green teas and let them do what they each do best. The Sencha comes from Shizuoka, Japan's most prolific tea-growing region, and brings a bright, grassy clarity to the cup. The Matcha comes from Uji, the historic heartland of Japanese ceremonial green tea, and contributes a deep, savory umami that rounds out the blend. Together, they create something more than either could manage alone: the clean, vegetal brightness of Sencha lifted by the rich, full-bodied depth of Matcha. For those who find straight Matcha too intense or plain Sencha too light, this blend finds the balance in between.

Olivia ★★★★★

The Shizuoka sencha gives it that bright, grassy freshness, and it steeps a clean, pale green that’s become my afternoon ritual. I’ve already gone through half the bag in a week, and it’s the first tea that’s actually replaced my coffee habit.

Jason ★★★★★

The blend of Shizuoka sencha with the other green tea gives it a depth I wasn't expecting, and the aroma is wonderfully fresh. I've already brewed three cups this morning, and the flavor stays smooth without getting bitter.

Ruby B. ★★★★☆

The blend idea is clever—the sencha's grassy sharpness actually softens into something rounder on the second steep. I just wish the bag were resealable, since I go through it slower than my other teas.
