Kukicha

Green Tea Leaf Stems

The stems for our Kukicha come from premium quality tea leaves picked in the early spring, which are then deep steamed. This results in a very light, refreshing Japanese green tea that tastes slightly sweet and vegetal. Kukicha hardly ever tastes bitter even when brewed more than once. Its caffeine content is lower than most other green teas.

This tea is available in a 500 gram "Plain Wrap" package. This represents a 25% savings. If you are a first-time buyer at Shizuokatea.com, we recommend you try our smaller consumer-size packages first as the larger bulk sizes are not included in our Guaranteed Satisfaction Policy.
