Tea Description

Kukicha Tea (also known as Bocha or Twig Tea) has been sourced from Japan and organically cultivated through unique methods. Rather than using the tea leaves itself, Kukicha is made from the stalks & twigs of the Camellia Sinensis Tea Plant. For instance, ‘kuki’ means stem and ‘cha’ means tea. The twigs and stems come from the specific off-cuts of the green tea leaves used to make Gyokuru, Sencha and Matcha Tea. With this in mind, it is no surprise that Japanese Kukicha is classified as a high grade tea. As there are no whole green tea leaves used, it makes Kukicha Tea naturally low in caffeine. In Japan, it is also widely consumed with added juice to make a healthy drink for children. The taste of this tea presents naturally pleasant and spicy notes similar to the Japanese Sencha. Expect a yellow coloured cup and a light green infusion.
