  • Sencha – Japan’S Green Tea
    Sencha – Japan’s green tea Sencha (煎茶) is Japan's most consumed and also the most produced tea variety. This green tea owes its popularity due to the refreshing taste and the numerous variations. Depending on the time of harvesting a Sencha can either get a sweet or tarty taste. For Sencha is usally the outstanding variety Yabukita used which makes up about 77% of all cultivated tea cultivars. But, depending on terroir, are also completely different varieties such as Yutakamidori or Asatsuyu used. Varieties of Sencha Sencha can be divided into many different categories. But mainly, it is is distinguished by harvest time and steaming duration. A very early harvested Sencha for example is generally of a higher quality and the tea leaves are finer than a later harvested (eg. Bancha). Asamushi (浅 虫), Sencha which was only slightly steamed (about 30s). Chumushi, Sencha with medium steaming (30-90s). This is the standard steaming time. Fukamushi (深 蒸し), deep steamed Sencha (1-2 min). It is often marketed as Fukamushicha. Jo Sencha (上 煎茶), fine Sencha. Toku Jo Sencha, (特 上 煎茶), extra fine Sencha. Hachijuhachiya Sencha (八 十八 夜), tea that was harvested 88 days (literally nights) after Risshun, the beginning of spring. Shincha (新 茶) is the first harvest of a year. Kabusecha or Kabuse Sencha is like Gyokuro a shaded tea. It's often regarded as a own tea variety. Production of Sencha Sencha is nowadays mostly harvested by machine and immediately steamed in order to prevent oxidation (kill green). This method, also called the Japanese method, ensures that the tea tastes very fresh.

  • Coffee and Tea in Beverages and Beyond
    [Beverages] Vol. 21 No. 3 March 2011 Coffee and Tea in Beverages and Beyond By Kimberly J. Decker, Contributing Editor Coffee and tea make rich topics for study, from the chemical constituents of their flavors to their cultivation and processing to debates over brewing techniques, levels of roast and the merits of loose leaves versus bags. One pleasant side effect of our infatuation with coffee and tea is the understanding we’ve gained of how to extend their pleasures beyond the cup. Coffee and tea flavor profiles complement so many foods that it’s almost unfair not to share them with everything from crème brûlée to barbecue sauce. Coffee complexity Coffee is a model of complexity, with the number of identified flavor constituents growing with each improvement in analytical techniques. “Currently, around 1,000 different substances have been identified in coffee," says Ben Kranen, principal flavorist, global flavour creation & technology group, Givaudan, Naarden, the Netherlands. “Using coffee-derived ingredients will give us many of those substances in one pour." While complexity doesn’t necessarily correlate with deliciousness, coffee’s chemical intricacy does set it apart from simpler flavors. “You’ve got amyl acetate in banana. You’ve got benzaldehyde in cherry. Even in something as complex as strawberry, there’s a known number of components that give you each characteristic strawberry flavor," says Paulette Lanzoff, technical director, Synergy, Wauconda, IL. Not so with coffee. “There’s so much more going on," she says. “There is no one particular flavor fingerprint." While this may make things more intriguing to the palate, it definitely makes designing coffee flavors “more challenging for the flavor chemist," she says.

  • Umami Café by AJINOMOTO CO
    Umami Café BY AJINOMOTO CO. The Tea Experience For centuries, green tea has been treasured throughout Asia for its healthful, restorative qualities. In Japan, Zen priests drank green tea to keep them awake through long hours of meditation. In the 16th century, a man named Sen no Rikyù, influenced by the study of Zen, envisioned a path to enlightenment through the simple act of sharing a bowl of tea among friends in the spirit of peace and harmony—a practice he called wabi-cha. For Rikyu, making tea while mindfully engaging all the senses was to have a complete Zen experience. We are pleased to have you share a moment of quiet joy with us and experience the spirit of Japanese culture through a simple bowl of tea. Tea Sets We’ve paired traditional teas with Japanese sweets. A great place to start. Matcha with Hanabira Mochi GF V $14 Sencha with Fried Rice A bowl of hand-whisked, jade green matcha is paired with a traditional Japanese tea ceremony sweet.

Samples of twenty-five powdered green teas were collected from the market in the United States, and their chemical components were compared. Their prices varied widely, from $4.3 to $160 per 100 g. The higher-priced teas were labeled as “matcha” and are used in the traditional Japanese tea ceremony. They showed a higher content of chlorophyll and of free amino acids (theanine and arginine) than the less expensive teas. They also showed a lower content of epigallocatechin as well as a lower conversion percentage of chlorophyll to pheophytin than those of lower prices. Matcha is traditionally produced in Japan and considered one of the country’s most precious teas. In spite of the large differences in chemical composition compared with the highly priced powdered green teas (ceremonial-grade matcha), the cheaper teas are also labeled as “matcha” in the US market. It is, therefore, necessary to come up with an international definition of matcha to resolve the confusion.
