This fantastic tea of Japanese origin, in addition to being one of the most appreciated in the world, has truly amazing properties: it strengthens the body, promotes digestion, is an excellent antioxidant and is a good source of calcium, iron and vitamin A.
In the original language the term Bancha means ordinary tea, precisely because it can be consumed at any time of the day, thanks to the almost total absence of theine. Although many argue that Bancha means "late harvest" precisely because of its harvest that is carried out in October, it is practically the last harvest among others.
There are two types of quality of Bancha Tea depending on whether only leaves or its twigs are taken in the collection. Using the leaves you will get the "Bancha" Hojicha Tea, which is a Tea with a very low presence of theine, instead if the twigs are taken you will get a Tea called Kukicha.
Its taste is light, soft and tasty.
As with other Green Teas, Bancha also has several factors that compromise its success.
A fundamental factor is the temperature of the water, which must never be too hot (max 80 degrees), since not all of us have a thermometer for the preparation of you, it is a good method to remove the water from the heat as soon as it starts to boil and let it rest for a couple of minutes before infusing the leaves.
The quantities to be used for a cup of tea are really small, just half a teaspoon. The water must be pale yellow and not too dark, otherwise your tea will be too strong and bitter.
The infusion time is short, maximum 3 / 4 minutes.
You can add some crystal of brown sugar or a little honey if you want, although this type of tea should be consumed naturally to fully enjoy all its taste.
Really excellent! Detailed description and faithful to the product!
