Practical “Sencha” Japanese Green Tea brewing technique
A lecture for how to make three cups of Sencha green tea by M. Higashi. There are several way to make a cup of Sencha, but the most of the instructions are based on “Japanese condition” and lack the measuring method, which confuses the people living in other counties. This instruction is using very basic, traditional, and also practical way for the people who live in western countries. For more information, please check BASSARO website. www.bassaro.com

Are multiple infusions necessary?
The white teaspoon first shown with the tea leaves are those common in Japan? A vendor I order from occasionally throws one very similar looking spoon in with orders. Otherwise Great Video.
Hello from France, Nice tea lesson:)
I read that water for any tea should not be cooked. The oxygen content would be lowered causing the tea to have less flavour. What do you think about this?
わ～～～ すげい～！ 説明してくれてありがとう！ そんなタイプの説明ずっと捜していたんだから。
That would be fantastic. I have a flush that I will be harvesting next week and would love to try a small batch of sencha. Aloha from Maui.
If you are interested in processing Sencha, I can introduce you some skilled processor who can give you free training.
If you do not have enough confidence, I do not suppose you should hesitate to invest thermometer. It’s not a big investment.
本当にありがとう! Thank you very much for this video. I live in Hawai’i and am growing my own tea – currently I have Yabukita and Benikaori Cultivars. Do you know anything about processing freshly harvested tea leaves into Sencha? Let me know if you are ever visiting Maui Hawaii and I can show you my farm. Your english is very good! Aloha.
If you are just a beginner in making tea, do you recommend using a thermometer for measuring water temperature?
Dude, almost everything we do or make we touch with our hands. Not everything is sterile or clean, even the machine that processes them are not 100% clean. Besides that, the world if full of germs and microorganisms, even in your mouth. So as long as his hands are clean and dry then it should be just fine. if you want, go look at people cook or in fast food restaurant, but you people are still eating it, and so do you, so just ignore that little stupid thing.
Thank you. Your video is helpful.
I suppose 178F(81C) is a little bit too hot for good Sencha. Oganic Sencha tends to have less source of umami (a sort of rich sweet taste, refer in wikipedia) than conventional one, so sometimes it is relevant to brew in shotre time in hotter water.
i have purchased organic Japanese sencha tea. it tells me to have the water temperature at 178F ,
do i first set the temperature then porn in the leaves for 40sec wait
thank you very much, great video!
