Organic Kukicha Green Tea
Kukicha, a green tea from Japan, is also known as "twig tea". A blend of tea leaves and stems made from Sencha production it is a specialty tea made only in the spring harvest season. Kukicha is noted for its fresh green tea flavor, herbaceous aroma and low astringency. Our organic Kukicha brews into an emerald green infusion with a creamy sweet grassy, slightly nutty flavor. Kukicha is full of powerful anti-oxidants and is lower in caffeine than many other green teas.
