650 Japan Bancha Organic
Bancha, the "vin de table" of Japanese green tea, is essentially a lower grade Sencha consisting of coarser leaves that make a somewhat brisker tea. This fine-grade, surprisingly aromatic Bancha has a light-golden cup color and a slight vegetal, sweet aroma. Prepared correctly, it does not have the astringency and harshness found in many Banchas.
Recommendations: Use 1 heaping tsp. per 6 oz. cup; heat fresh, cold water until steaming (180° F); let steep for 2 min.
Ingredients: 100% Organic Green tea
Health Benefits: In traditional Chinese and Indian medicine, practitioners have used green tea as a stimulant, diuretic, digestion aid and astringent. Studies show that green tea has the ability to regulate blood glucose, enhance mental performance, reduce inflammation, improve bone mineral density and lower risk of heart disease. It is a rich source of the polyphenol EGCG, shown to provide protection against cancer, particularly colon, lung and skin cancers.
