Kukicha
Green Tea

Rating: 4.89 from 9 reviews
(4.89)

Kukicha, also called twig tea or Kuki cha, is a delightfully different Japanese green tea made from the leafless stalks, stems, and twigs of the tea plant. If you want something smooth, comforting, and a little unusual, this is a lovely choice. The cup is gentle and mellow, with warm nutty and malty notes, a hint of toasted sweetness, and an earthy, brothy character that many fans describe as comforting and garden-fresh. This Kukicha is low on bitterness and pleasantly sweet, making it welcoming for people who are new to green tea, and it pairs well with other greens if you like to blend. Expect subtle grassy and umami undertones, a light, clean finish, and a soft aroma that some say has a faint floral or perfumed edge. Several customers praise this version as an exceptional, organic example of its kind. Brewing tips: use about 1 teaspoon per 8-ounce cup, water at 175 to 185ยฐF (80 to 85ยฐC), and steep 1 to 2 minutes for a smooth, balanced cup. Kukicha also takes a second infusion well, especially when mixed with leftover Gyokuro leaves for a gentle afternoon steep. Whether you enjoy it as a morning pick-me-up or a mellow afternoon sip, Kukicha delivers a unique taste profile: nutty, toasted, slightly sweet, and refreshingly smooth. Try a bag today and discover why this twig tea has a devoted following.

Single-Cultivar Kamairicha Yabukita
Green Tea

Most Japanese green teas are defined by steam. This one is defined by fire. Kamairicha is Japan's pan-fired green tea, a rare style that forgoes the steaming process used in nearly all Japanese tea production in favor of the pan-firing method common throughout China and much of the rest of the tea-growing world. The result is a green tea that feels both distinctly Japanese and genuinely unlike anything else in our lineup. This particular Kamairicha is grown near the Ojiro River in the semi-mountainous Kanaya region, where favorable elevation, water access, and regional geography create ideal conditions for tea cultivation. Made from the Yabukita cultivar, Japan's most celebrated tea plant, and produced by a farmer deeply committed to honoring traditional technique while pushing his craft forward, this is a tea with a clear point of view. The pan-firing process also skips several of the rolling stages typical of sencha production, yielding a beautifully twisted, open leaf that's striking in the tin and expressive in the cup. In the cup, the aroma opens with nori and sweet anko, giving way to roasted nuts and a whisper of roasted poblano pepper. The flavor is round and umami-forward, with a gentle bitterness reminiscent of a loaded baked potato, and a long, lingering finish of sweet butter cookie. Smooth, complex, and deeply satisfying. We're proud to be offering this rare style for the first time - and we don't expect it to last long.
