From Rishi Tea

Sencha is the most beloved tea of Japan. Developed in the 18th century, the process of making Sencha has evolved into the art and science of preserving the fresh green character and healthy components of tealeaves.
Our Sencha is organically cultivated in Kagoshima, Japan, where the beneficial climate, rich volcanic soil and abundant hot springs nurture Sencha, giving the tea a deep flavor and juicy mouthfeel.

If the taste is too grassy for you, try using less hot water. Used 3 tablespoons on half a liter of water. The taste was perfect!

I would think you’d want more water and less leaves? At least that’s what worked for me.

That would work as well.

This is my first experience with Japanese green tea. It is juicy and rich, with slight buttery low note and tropical flower high note.

Think next time i’ll use a lower steeping time ‘cause 4’ seems to be too much!…

Great quality tea, just personally did not care for. Had a very grassy taste to it.

That was my first experience too. I lowered the leaf quantity and it made it a lot better.

I had a really hard time getting this tea to where I liked it. I finally settled on 1 tsp leaf to 8oz water. Water should be at 165F.

Exactly the same experience I had. Thankfully I found that balance on my second attempt. Now I love it [with a dab of honey].
