About This Tea
What does Yamacha taste like?
This high mountain Sencha offers a delightful journey with its fine, smooth character. Expect refreshing notes of sweet cucumber, balanced by a subtle hint of bitterness that adds complexity, culminat. It leans vegetal, sweet and smooth.
How should I brew Yamacha?
Water around 70–80 °C (158–176 °F). In a mug, steep 2–3 min. For gongfu, use 3–5 g per 100 ml, 15–30 s steeps. You'll get to see how the flavor changes across multiple rounds. The biggest mistake with green tea is using boiling water. Keep it well below that and you won't get bitterness.
Where does Yamacha come from?
Grown in Hamamatsu, Japan. This batch is from the Spring harvest.
How much does Yamacha cost?
Starts at $25.00 from Dobrá Tea, or about $0.50/g. A 50g package gets you around 8 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $3.00 per session. Explore more green teas on Teadar.
