Try our new tea geared to people who prefer drinking loose leaf sencha but want the added health benefits of a catechin boost. This special Sencha tea has an extra 300 miligram shot of the natural active ingredient in green tea, Catechin, added to it. Catechin is a natural tanin responsible for most of the health benefits found in green tea research. The extra tanin gives the tea a strong taste but balances the typically astringent taste of this added tanin boost with the sweeter amino acids found in green tea leaves.

This tea is produced under ISO 14001 Certified Environmental Management Standards. Japanese steamed green tea's have traditionally high antioxidant levels.
