Sencha is the most popular tea in Japan, with its refined bitterness and refreshing flavor. Unlike the shade-cultivated gyokuro and tencha teas, sencha leaves are grown in open-air; the exposure to direct sunlight encourages new shoots. The leaves are steamed, rolled, and dried after being harvested.
