ORGANIC PREMIUM GREEN TEA KUKICHA, JAPAN

This Kukicha, which in Japan is considered a very popular, yet high grade tea, is now available as an organically grown quality. The production foregoes the sieving of the delicate, light green petioles (jp: Kuki) which create a delightful optic in combination with the dark green Sencha. Our palate captures a subtly astringent, pleasant spicy note, strongly reminiscent of Japanese Sencha. The cup colour is lemon yellow and the light green infusion presents a full, spicy aroma.
