Kukicha

Description

Kukicha Midori (Stem Tea) is made from the stems, stalks, and twigs of first flush leaves carefully separated during the production process. The leaves produce a brilliantly bright green liquor with a rich aroma. This tea is unique in that it is naturally very low in caffeine without any industrial decaffeination. Enjoy this tea day or night and imagine the peaceful beauty of Shizuoka, Japan.

How To Brew

Use 2 grams (1 teaspoon dried tea leaves) for 8 fl. oz. water in your favorite teapot or infuser (use bottled drinking water for best flavor, let boil and steep at 212F). Steep for 30-60 seconds. Leaves may be infused at least 3 times.

These are suggested brewing instructions. We encourage you to experiment and share your own brewing methods as you continue to grow in the tea culture. If you're new to tea this is a good way to start.
