Description
Bancha is Japan's everyday green tea, harvested from mature leaves later in the season after the premium first-flush sencha picking. It has a mild, earthy flavor with less astringency and lower caffeine than sencha. Affordable and easy to brew, bancha is the daily household tea across Japan and serves as the base for both hojicha and genmaicha.
