Japanese Sencha Grade A

Japanese Sencha Grade A

$28.00

This is undoubtedly the finest Japanese Sencha we have tasted to date.

A prime example of what makes first flush sencha so sought after: a fine, delicate vegetal aroma and taste, followed by an almond finish. Sweet and delicate yet complex vegetal, oceanic, and satisfying umami flavor.

This organic Asamushi Sencha is known in Japanese as “Asamushi-cha”. It is lightly steamed green tea, much shorter than typical sencha. Different levels of steaming are different “mushi”s. Lighter steaming (30 seconds) will result in a lighter, cleaner, more delicate, and more astringent flavor, as well as a lighter color.

Do not use water above 75 °C, as the flavor profile will be compromised.

Our Why

At Map & Bean, we believe great coffee should tell you where it’s from.

Not just in words — but in taste.

Most coffee today is faceless. Roasted to sameness and stripped of its roots.

We exist to change that.

We believe coffee should take you places — to highland farms in Ethiopia, volcanic soil in Guatemala, or the lush hills of Colombia. Every region tells a story. Every bean carries its character. And every cup we roast is your invitation to explore the world, one origin at a time.

We want every cup to give you more than caffeine — we want it to give you context.

Because when you know the story behind your coffee, you experience it differently.

More thoughtfully. More gratefully. More deliciously.

This is coffee for explorers — for those who believe that flavor is shaped by place, and that every sip is an opportunity to travel the world.

Map & Bean isn’t for everyone. It’s for the curious. The conscious. The ones who believe great taste comes from great purpose.

When you care where your coffee comes from, you’re not just drinking better — you’re living better.

Welcome to the journey.
