Organic Japan Kukicha - Toasted - Green Tea

This organic green tea is largely composed of leaf stalks - the so called ‘Kuki’ which are obtained during the production of Sencha or Bancha. It is, therefore, nearly free of caffeine but rich in trace elements. Toasted Kukicha is a speciality green tea with a strong, almost sweet taste. The mild coffee notes are reminiscent of dark chocolate. Despite its characteristic appearance, its taste is discreet and thus makes it an enjoyable experience suitable both during the day and evening.
