Organic Bancha
$3.75 – $15.00 (from $0.26/cup)
A great budget-friendly Japanese tea. This full-bodied green tea has a mild flavor and lovely mouthfeel. The aroma and flavor of sea vegetables evolve into a toasty finish with some astringency.
Description
Harvested from the same tree as Sencha, Bancha is made from larger leaves that are generally plucked later. It has a less sweet but more robust flavor and stronger astringency than Sencha.

It’s bancha, what else is there to say? Tastes good and you get many steeps out of it.
