Spring in Singapore may not bring cherry blossoms, but that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy the season’s delicate beauty in a cup. TWG Tea has unveiled two exquisite Japanese green tea blends—Always Sakura Tea and Sencha Matcha—that encapsulate the essence of spring. Whether you’re a seasoned tea connoisseur or just starting your journey, these teas offer a refined and aromatic experience worth indulging in.
Why Spring Is the Best Time to Enjoy Japanese Green Tea
Spring marks the beginning of the first flush—the most prized tea harvest of the year. As the tea leaves awaken from winter dormancy, they develop a vibrant, delicate flavour, making Japanese green tea particularly special during this time. TWG Tea’s latest collection celebrates this season of renewal with premium-quality blends.
Always Sakura Tea – A Floral Symphony in a Cup
The highlight of spring, cherry blossoms, is beautifully captured in TWG Tea’s Always Sakura Tea. This cherry blossom tea is a fragrant infusion of Rainier cherries and delicate pink blossoms blended with premium green tea. The result is a tea that is:
- Light and Floral – Perfect for a refreshing afternoon cup.
- Mildly Sweet – With natural cherry notes balancing the green tea’s vegetal tones.
- Aesthetic & Elegant – Housed in a beautiful tin with intricate floral motifs.
Always Sakura Tea is a must-try if you love floral teas or want to add a touch of spring to your tea collection.
Sencha Matcha – A Perfectly Balanced Green Tea Blend
Sencha Matcha is a dream come true for those who prefer a richer, more umami-forward tea. This blend combines two premium Japanese teas:
- Sencha – A smooth, vegetal tea grown in the volcanic soils of Kyushu Island, known for its silky texture and sweet aftertaste.
- Matcha – A high-grade, ceremony-quality Japanese Matcha from Kagoshima Prefecture adds a deep, rich character.
This blend results in a vibrant green infusion with notes of seaweed, freshly cut grass, and a subtle umami finish—a tea that both beginners and connoisseurs can appreciate.
