Darsana Tea – Warming the soul, relaxing the mind, balancing the body.
Bancha: Is an organic green tea and as with all tea – Green tea is from the camellia sinensis plant. The differences is just in the processing. A Chinese green tea is heated to stop the oxidization (turning brown) via pan frying rolling it as its heated. Thus also adding to a rounded ball shaped leaf that you often see. In Japan it is cut, steamed and flattened.
Location: The organic Bancha style green tea used in our blends is from the Zhejiang Province and made to Japanese specifications.
Benefits: Green tea is very rich in cancer fighting properties. It contains numerous anti-oxidants and polyphenols and it has more of a medium level of caffeine.
Best Temperature: Bancha is best done at 90-95˚ for about 3-4 minutes. Within that range you can get multiple steepings out of the same 2-3g of tea.
