1. Introduction to Vietnamese Sencha

Vietnamese Sencha Green Tea (Trà Xanh Sencha) is a perfect fusion of Japanese processing expertise and the exceptional tea-growing terroir of Vietnam. Cultivated in the cool, mist-covered highlands such as Moc Chau, Lam Dong, or Thai Nguyen, this tea is crafted using the traditional “steaming” method (Mushi) instead of pan-firing.

At Vinahugo, our Sencha is characterized by its vibrant emerald-green color, a refreshing grassy aroma, and a delicate balance of sweetness and umami. It is a premium choice for global tea enthusiasts seeking the health benefits of green tea with a smooth, refined taste.
