Overview Brand : Pantenger Item Form : Loose Leaves Flavor : Kabusecha Green Tea - Loose Leaf Tea Variety : Green Unit Count : 3.0 Ounce About this item Kabusecha is a prestigious Japanese green tea. It combines the green flavour of Sencha and the sweetness of Gyokuro. This shade-grown tea is deprived from any sunlight just 7 to 8 days before the first harvest of spring. Through exposure to sunlight, theanine is converted to catechins. Shading the tea bushes before plucking helps to retain a large amount of theanine. Theanine is a sweet component and it has a calming and relaxing effect. In contrast, catechins are a bitter component. Through exposure to sunlight, theanine is converted to catechins.
