Thanks to its flavor and beneficial effects on health, Sencha is considered the king of green teas. To benefit from these virtues, it is essential to choose a good quality product, rich in antioxidants. There are indeed many varieties of Sencha teas at various prices.

Like Matcha and other green teas, Sencha is rich in antioxidants. A true health ally, it plays a preventive role in many diseases such as cancer. This savory beverage also contains caffeine which stimulates metabolism. Note that it is much better tolerated by the body than that found in coffee. A cup of quality tea also contains vitamins, minerals and trace elements essential to the body. This Chinese tea fights against signs of aging: it stimulates cognitive functions and delays the appearance of wrinkles. In China and Japan, it is consumed daily to benefit from its virtues.
The preparation of Sencha green tea is identical to that of other teas. For an exquisite taste when tasting, scrupulously follow the preparation instructions and enjoy it plain, without sugar, honey or milk.
