Loose Leaf Japanese Tea

For your health. For your mindfulness moment. We handpick the best tasting tea made in different parts of Japan.

Which type of Japanese Tea should I start with?

There are so many types of loose leaf Japanese tea, it may be hard to figure out where to start! While our Japanese Tea-pedia gives you much more information in depth, here's a quick one to get you started.


If you're in for the health benefits, try Sencha or Gyokuro. They are less processed hence more nutrients such as the Catechins and Theanine remain in the leaves.


If you like to enjoy roasted aroma. If you opt for less caffeine. Then try Genmaicha or Houjicha. These won't bother your sleep too much even if you drink during dinner.


If you're unsure, you can check the bundles which contain different types of teas. Take a look at some of my recommendations below too!

Owner's Recommends

"Sencha Umejirushi" - by Taniguchien

We're seeing a jump in the popularity for this tea this season, and for good reason! It really is a 'premium' quality tea that gives you its money's worth with its rich aroma and umami.
Personally, I remember the first time I tried this tea was a mind-blowing experience. It's still one of my personal favorites as well.

"Gyokuro Umejirushi" - by Taniguchien

Try the pinacle of Japanese green tea, the Gyokuro. Just like Matcha, it's a tea that's shaded to condense the umami and sweetness to the max. In that sense, you can say it's a loose-leaf version of the Matcha. This Gyokuro umejirushi is from the land of Uji where Gyokuro was first invented. A magnificent choice you will love!

EGCG Green Tea from Misty Crane

If you're looking for health benefits, this is the one. This EGCG tea is a blend that maximizes the amount of green tea catechins in the tea. Although it's a loose leaf tea, amazingly, it will give you more catechins than a Matcha.
