| Teas from the Yarra Valley |
|
Green tea picks - in Australia! When it comes to green tea, most of us immediately think of Asia. But here's a surprise! With green sencha tea, not all leaves are created equally. For centuries, the Japanese have enjoyed green tea (sencha tea) for its nutritional benefits and flavoursome taste. Green tea is harvested at a younger age and is not roasted in order to retain more of its nutrients and antioxidants. Green sencha tea is celebrated for its ability to reduce the formation of free radicals in the body, strengthening the body’s natural immune system. Since the development of green tea production in Victoria in 1994 there are now five growers of which one is certified organic. Harvested in Victoria’s high country and processed in Australia’s only green tea processing plant in Wangaratta, Yarra Valley Tea Co. is the largest buyer of locally grown organic green tea in Australia. It is used exclusively for their unique green tea blends, wittily named Uncle Vic & Aunt Myrtle. Uncle Vic pays homage to the traditional Japanese sencha tea with its vibrant green hue, cleansing aromatic taste and sweet tongue glosses. Offering an Aussie twist on this Japanese favourite, Aunt Myrtle emerges as an invigorating alternative; incorporating Queensland’s native lemon myrtle to provide a rejuvenating experience that improves the body’s natural detoxification and relaxation abilities.
