This shincha variety of sencha tea is sourced from a number of small scale farmers in northern Victoria, Australia. Shincha, or new tea, is made using new leaves from the first harvest of tea each spring. Shincha truly represents the beauty of a traditional tea experience. It offers a delicate and refined taste that is slightly buttery and exceptionally smooth.

Ryan ★★★★★

The northern Victoria leaves really come through with that fresh, grassy sweetness I look for in a shincha. I've been brewing it at 70°C and the first steep is incredibly smooth, no bitterness at all.

Timothy Y. ★★★★★

Got this as a first-harvest shincha and the difference is obvious the moment you open the bag — much greener and sweeter than the regular sencha I usually drink. Steeping it at a lower temp keeps any bitterness away, so the second cup is just as good as the first.

Ruby ★★★★★

The leaves unfurl beautifully in my glass pot, and I can taste that these are young first-harvest leaves — grassy but not bitter at all. I've been drinking this every morning for two weeks and the tin still feels heavy, so it goes a long way.
