Dammann Frères Sencha Fukuyu Japanese Green Tea in a 100g Tin

Sencha Fukuyu is a traditional Japanese green tea from Dammann Frères, one of France’s most respected tea houses. Sencha leaves are briefly steamed after harvesting, then shaped into fine, flattened needles, a method that helps preserve their fresh green character and distinctive Japanese style.

This Dammann Frères Sencha Fukuyu is a summer harvest tea with a more assertive flavour than very soft or spring-like green teas. It is clean, brisk and refreshing, with the vegetal and lightly marine notes that many drinkers look for in Japanese sencha.

Fresh Vegetal Notes with a Light Marine Character

In the cup, this Dammann Frères Sencha Fukuyu Japanese Green Tea produces a clear green-gold infusion with a fresh, savoury aroma. The flavour is strongly vegetal, with notes that suggest steamed greens, sea air and a clean mineral freshness.

A light astringency gives the tea structure and lift, making it feel crisp and energising rather than heavy. It is not a sweet, floral green tea; its appeal lies in its refreshing Japanese character, savoury depth and clean finish.

A Refreshing Japanese Green Tea for Everyday Drinking

Sencha Fukuyu is an excellent choice when you want a green tea that feels bright, clean and reviving. Its lively character makes it particularly enjoyable in the morning, after lunch, or alongside food.

Its savoury freshness also makes it a natural partner for seafood, sushi, raw fish, shellfish, light savoury dishes and fresh goat’s cheese. Serve it without milk and without sugar to appreciate its clean green tea character.

How to Brew Dammann Frères Sencha Fukuyu

Use freshly drawn water heated to around 70–80°C. Avoid boiling water directly on the leaves, as this can make Japanese green tea taste too bitter.

Use one teaspoon of loose leaf tea per cup and infuse for 2 to 3 minutes. For a softer cup, use the lower end of the temperature range and brew for around 2 minutes. For a more assertive, brisker cup, brew closer to 3 minutes.

Best enjoyed without milk.
