Organic Kukicha (Japanese Green Tea Stems)

This Kukicha is crafted from the young tea leaf stems, carefully separated during the Sencha refining process. Kukicha, commonly known as "stem tea" or "twig tea," boasts a unique profile. Being predominantly composed of stems, it offers a heightened presence of L-theanine while containing less caffeine compared to traditional leaf-only green teas. This natural balance imparts a gentle sweetness to the brew and makes it a soothing choice suitable for any time of day without inducing drowsiness. This Kukicha presents a mildly sweet, invigorating vegetal taste complemented by an enjoyable aroma.   New to loose-leaf tea drinking?
