What Makes Our Sencha Green Tea Special?

The Processing Method

The magic of Sencha lies in its processing. Unlike black tea, which is fully oxidized, or Chinese-style green teas that are often pan-fired, our Sencha is produced using the traditional steaming method. Immediately after plucking, the fresh leaves are steamed to halt oxidation. This crucial step preserves the vivid green color of the leaf and locks in the vegetal, grassy flavors that characterize a high-quality Sencha.

After steaming, the leaves are rolled and dried. This rolling process shapes the leaves into thin, needle-like cylinders. This is not merely for aesthetics; rolling breaks down the cell walls of the leaf, ensuring that the flavor and nutrients are readily released when you brew the tea.

A Unique Flavor Profile

Our Bangladeshi-grown Sencha offers a sophisticated flavor profile that balances sweetness with a mild, pleasant astringency.

• Aroma: Fresh, oceanic, and grassy. It smells like a revitalize spring meadow.
• Liquor: A beautiful, translucent emerald green to golden yellow.
• Taste: You will experience a savory “umami” note, followed by a refreshing sweetness and a clean finish. It lacks the bitterness found in lower-quality bagged teas.

Unlocking the Power of Nature: Health Benefits of Green Tea

When you buy green tea online from Tea Shop BD, you are investing in your long-term wellness. Sencha Green Tea is a nutritional powerhouse, denser in beneficial compounds than many other tea varieties due to the steaming process that preserves its natural integrity.

1. High Concentration of Antioxidants

Our Sencha is rich in catechins, a type of natural phenol and antioxidant. The most potent of these is Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG). These antioxidants fight oxidative stress in the body, neutralizing free radicals that damage cells. Regular consumption can help reduce inflammation and protect against cellular damage.

2. Cardiovascular Health Support

Heart disease remains a leading health concern globally. Studies suggest that the flavonoids in green tea can help improve blood flow and lower cholesterol levels. Drinking Sencha Green Tea in Bangladesh creates a simple, daily habit that may support heart health by preventing the oxidation of LDL particles, a key contributor to heart disease.

3. Natural Energy and Focus

Unlike the jittery energy spike associated with coffee, Sencha provides a sustained, calm alertness. This is due to the synergy between caffeine and L-theanine, an amino acid found in high concentrations in shade-grown and high-quality green teas. L-theanine promotes relaxation without drowsiness, countering the harsh effects of caffeine. This makes our Sencha the perfect beverage for productivity and mental clarity.

4. Weight Management and Metabolism

For those looking to manage their weight, Sencha is an excellent companion. The combination of caffeine and catechins has been shown to boost the metabolic rate and increase fat burning, particularly during exercise. It is a zero-calorie beverage (when consumed without sugar) that hydrates the body while supporting your fitness goals.

5. Oral Hygiene and Skin Health

The catechins in Sencha have biological effects as well. They can kill bacteria and inhibit viruses like the influenza virus, potentially lowering your risk of infections. Furthermore, they can inhibit the growth of Streptococcus mutans, the primary harmful bacteria in the mouth, leading to improved dental health and reduced bad breath. Additionally, the anti-inflammatory properties can contribute to clearer, more youthful-looking skin.

Brewing the Perfect Cup: A Professional Guide

To truly appreciate the nuance of our premium green tea, proper brewing is essential. Using boiling water can scorch the delicate leaves, resulting in a bitter brew. Follow our expert guide to unlock the sweet, umami notes of Tea Shop BD’s Sencha.

The Essentials:

• Tea Quantity: 1 teaspoon (approx. 2 grams) per cup (200ml).
• Water Quality: Fresh, filtered water is best.
• Water Temperature: 70°C to 80°C (158°F – 176°F). If you have boiled the water, let it sit for about 5 minutes to cool down.
• Steeping Time: 1 to 2 minutes.

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Preheat your vessel: Pour a little hot water into your teapot and cups to warm them, then discard the water. This keeps the temperature stable during brewing.
2. Measure the leaves: Place the tea leaves into the pot.
3. Pour the water: Gently pour the hot water (cooled to 80°C) over the leaves.
4. Wait and Steep: Cover the teapot and let it steep. Do not shake or stir the pot vigorously. Let the leaves unfurl naturally.
5. The Pour: Pour the tea little by little into each cup (if serving multiple people) to ensure the strength of the tea is equal in every cup. Shake out every last drop—the last drops are known as the “golden drops” and are packed with flavor.

Cold Brew Method (Mizudashi):
For a refreshing summer drink, place 10 grams of leaves in a 1-liter pitcher of cold water. Refrigerate for 3-6 hours. The result is a sweet, smooth tea with zero bitterness and lower caffeine content.

Tasting Notes: What to Expect

At Tea Shop BD, we believe in transparency. We test every batch to ensure it meets our elite standards. Here is what our tasters noted for the current harvest:

• Leaf Appearance: Fine, needle-shaped leaves with a deep forest green color. A consistent size indicating careful sorting.
• Infusion: The wet leaves release a fresh, marine aroma reminiscent of seaweed and toasted grass. The leaves unfurl to reveal a bright, lively green.
• Liquor Color: A clear, golden-green hue that glows in the light.
• Palate: The entry is smooth with a medium body. It coats the mouth with a vegetal sweetness, followed by a crisp finish that leaves the palate feeling cleansed.

Why Our Sencha is the Best Choice in Bangladesh

The market for Sencha Green Tea in Bangladesh is growing, but quality varies significantly. Many imported options sit on shelves for months, losing their vitality.

The Local Advantage:
Because our Sencha is produced locally by our dedicated team, we control the supply chain from the garden to your doorstep. This ensures you receive the freshest tea possible. Freshness is the single most important factor in green tea quality.

Price vs. Value:
While you may find cheaper green teas in local supermarkets (ranging from BDT 70 to BDT 450 for basic dust or fannings), these cannot compare to the whole-leaf experience. Imported brands often charge a premium (BDT 500+) simply for the brand name and shipping costs.
At Tea Shop BD, we offer premium green tea at a price that reflects the quality of the leaf, not the logistics of importing. We provide luxury tea accessible to those who value their health and taste experience.

Sustainability and Ethical Sourcing

We take pride in our production methods. Our tea gardens employ sustainable farming practices that respect the environment. By choosing Tea Shop BD, you are supporting the local economy and ensuring fair wages for the tea workers of Bangladesh. We are honest businessmen committed to ethical trade, ensuring that every cup you drink contributes to a positive cycle of growth and prosperity in our country.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

A: Yes! We have utilized Japanese processing technology to create authentic Sencha using high-quality Bangladeshi tea leaves.

Q: Does Sencha Green Tea contain caffeine?
A: Yes, it contains a moderate amount of caffeine. It is less than black tea or coffee but enough to provide a gentle boost.
