Ban-cha Toasted Tea
Health Benefits: Rich in anti-oxidant polyphenols, green tea has recently shown evidence of inhibiting caner cell growth without harming healthy tissue. By improving the ratio of "good" (HDL) to "bad" (LDL) cholesterol, it is also an excellent heart tonic.
Flavor Description: Our Japanese Bancha has a mellow, toasted end note. A very Zen experience. An everyday drink that goes well with Japanese foods, particularly sukiyaki or any food strongly flavored with soy sauce. Its liquor is a tawny brownish color with a smoky taste. Although best when served hot, it also can be served cool but not cold. It is excellent at nighttime, as it is very light and low in caffeine.
