H&S Classic Japanese Sencha Leaf Tea Sachets

Morning sunlight, a quiet kitchen, and the soft steam of freshly poured tea — this is the everyday comfort that Harney & Sons Japanese Sencha brings. Harvested in Shizuoka, Japan’s heartland of green tea, this fine Sencha has long been cherished for its clean, balanced flavor and soothing character.

With each sip, gentle notes of fresh spinach and toasted grain unfold, followed by a whisper of citrus brightness. It’s the kind of tea that doesn’t demand attention, yet quietly becomes a part of your day — much like it did for John Harney, who began each morning for over a decade with this very cup.

The Story Behind the Blend

For generations, the Kaburagi family has been Japan’s trusted source of fine teas — their name synonymous with quality in Tokyo and beyond. For over 110 years, they have supplied exceptional green teas to tea lovers worldwide, including this classic Sencha from the misty hills of Shizuoka.

At Harney & Sons, the relationship continues to thrive. Founder John Harney valued this Sencha not only for its refreshing taste but also for its quiet elegance — a tea that bridges cultures, connecting Japanese tradition with the daily rhythm of tea drinkers around the world.
