Japanese Green Tea comes from the Uji region of Kyoto in Japan. Like all tea, it is made from the plant Camellia sinensis, but unlike the leaves of black and oolong teas, the tea leaves in Japanese green tea are lightly steamed instead of roasted, which is why they preserve their green color. This tea is sometimes called Ocho, and it is a very popular tea in Japan.
