Kukicha 100g
Kukicha is one of Japanese green teas. It is dramatically distinguished from other green teas, almost all other teas - by the use of the stems of the plant, as well as the shoots. This is also why it's often called 'Kukicha twig tea' - it literally has twigs in it. In reality it means that the tea has a lighter, fresher flavour even than the one normally associated with more common green teas.
It provides a light, gentle drink that will surprise the uninitiated greatly. The tea comes primarily from the same plants that Sencha and Matcha teas come from - simply using the parts of the tea plants not used in the production of the others.
