Kirkland Signature Japanese Green Tea is a premium blend of Sencha and Matcha, made with 100% Japanese tea leaves. Produced exclusively for Kirkland Signature by ITO EN, a leading Japanese tea manufacturer, this tea combines the smooth, vegetal character of sencha with the velvety fullness of ground matcha powder. Each box contains 100 individually wrapped nylon filter tea bags, with each bag containing 1.5 grams of tea.

The tea is sourced from Japan's lush tea plantations, known for producing some of the finest teas in the world. The minimal processing preserves the tea's natural antioxidants, aroma, and vibrant green color. Sencha, the premium green tea base, provides a clean, grassy flavor, while matcha powder adds umami depth and enhances the health benefits.

This blend is rich in catechins (powerful antioxidants), caffeine for gentle energy, and L-theanine for focus and relaxation. The combination promotes mental alertness, supports metabolism, may help reduce cholesterol, and provides anti-inflammatory benefits. The tea is suitable for both hot and cold brewing. For hot tea, use water heated to 176°F (80°C) and steep for 30 seconds, shaking the bag 3-4 times. Avoid boiling water as it can create bitterness. For cold brew, refrigerate the tea bag in cold water for 6 hours or more.
