At a glance: An organic Yangtze green tea built on a Sencha base, brightened with ginger and lemon. Steep at 75-80°C for 2-3 min, 12-15 g/L.

The Yangtze green tea is one of the signature creations of our house. Behind its evocative name, you'll find a characterful Sencha lifted by a tangy, gently spiced thread that refreshes the day without ever weighing down the cup.

This infusion was crafted for those who love a bright, straightforward green tea, one that wakes the palate from the very first sip. Explore our selection of organic single-origin green teas to continue the journey.

The Yangtze Flavour Profile

It all begins with the base: an organic Sencha, with long, twisted leaves of deep green. Its golden liquor releases delicate herbaceous notes, a gentle vegetal sweetness reminiscent of freshly cut grass and young shoots.

Layered over that, organic ginger brings its warm, lightly spiced signature. Present in small pieces, it infuses slowly and unfolds a gentle heat that energises the cup without overpowering it.

Lemon then arrives in two layers: organic lemon peel lends a rounded, almost candied zestiness, while the natural lemon aroma amplifies the freshness on the palate. This is the tangy soul of the blend.

Organic lemongrass carries that citrus signature further, with a subtler green and woody nuance that softens the lemon's bright opening. Finally, marigold flowers add a light floral touch and a beautiful golden palette to the cup.

Top notes: bright lemon, zesty peel
Heart notes: herbaceous Sencha, lemongrass
Base notes: warm ginger, marigold flowers

The result is a balanced, tonic and thirst-quenching brew, just as enjoyable hot as it is over ice. If you love this fresh profile, you'll likely appreciate our spearmint green tea as well.

How to Prepare Yangtze Green Tea

Preparation determines the entire balance of this infusion. Sencha is a delicate green tea that does not tolerate boiling water: too hot, and it will draw out an unpleasant bitterness and overwhelm the citrus notes.

The T&T method:

Water: low-mineral, freshly brought to a simmer then cooled to 75-80°C
Quantity: 12 to 15 g per litre, roughly one heaped teaspoon per cup
Steeping time: 2 to 3 minutes, no longer
Accessories: glass or porcelain teapot, wide-mesh filter to let the leaves fully open

Pour the water over the leaves, steep without stirring, then strain immediately. For a particularly good iced version, cold-steep for 4 to 6 hours in the fridge using the same quantity: the lemon brightness and Sencha sweetness come beautifully to the fore.

Storage

Packed in our workshop, this tea keeps best in an airtight caddy, away from light, moisture and strong odours. A dry cupboard is preferable to the refrigerator. Stored this way, it retains its full aromatic freshness for 18 to 24 months.
