A Tale of Two Traditions
This blend represents a fascinating fusion of Eastern and Western tea cultures. Sencha, the most popular tea in Japan, emerged in the 17th century when Japanese tea masters perfected the art of steaming tea leaves to preserve their natural flavor and nutrients. Meanwhile, vanilla, originally cultivated by the Totonac people of Mexico, became one of the world's most prized spices. The marriage of these two ingredients creates a bridge between ancient tea traditions and modern flavor preferences. In China, green tea was often enhanced with natural aromatics, though traditionally with local ingredients like jasmine. The addition of vanilla represents a modern, global approach to tea crafting while respecting traditional methods.
