They use all different kinds. And Thai and Japanese places probably don’t use the same kinds.
Japanese green tea has many different varieties, but I think the kind you are familiar with is the loose leave tea known as “sen-cha”. It’s the most basic and common form of Japanese green tea.
You won’t find that in a normal American grocery store. You probably have to go to a Japanese market or a specialty store.
Oh, and it’s generally considered *extremely* offensive to refer to Japanese as “Jap”. I know you didn’t intend that, but just FYI.
