Frequently Asked Questions
Does Culinary Teas Japan Sencha Mikado Green Tea (25 Loose-Leaf Pyramid Teabags Carton) contain caffeine?
Yes. Like all green tea, this sencha contains caffeine—typically 25–50 mg per 8 oz cup, making it ideal for sustained focus without excessive stimulation.
How do I brew this green tea properly?
Steep one pyramid teabag in water heated to 160–180°F for 2–3 minutes. Avoid boiling water, which can turn the tea bitter. This blend shines best enjoyed on its own.
Is this different from matcha green tea?
Yes. This is a traditional steeped sencha, not matcha powder. You'll enjoy a cleaner cup with more subtle flavor complexity than matcha's earthy intensity.
