Description
Ingredients:
- Green tea
- With gentle, creamy notes of fresh herbs, chestnut and wood, this beloved Japanese green tea is reminiscent of a forest fairyland. Originally considered a peasant’s tea because it is composed of the twigs and stems as well as the leaves of the tea plant, Kukicha is now seen as a delicacy and is revered for its well-rounded flavor, powerful health benefits and overall balancing effect on the body. For the smoothest flavor, allow freshly boiled water to cool several minutes (to approximately 180°F) before brewing.
Origin:
Japan
Packaging:
Our elegant, embossed tin is designed to keep tea fresh and full of flavor.
Each tin holds approximately 36 teaspoons (12 tablespoons) of loose tea. The number of servings-per-tin varies depending upon the type of tea, leaf size, cup size and desired strength (amount of tea used).
The tin itself measures 6.25 inches tall, 2.75 inches wide and 2 inches deep. Although a tin holds 16 fluid ounces by volume, the actual ounce weight of the tea within varies depending on the density of the leaf.
