This tea has a lovely history behind it. It originates from the tea gardens of Uji, south of Kyoto. The substance of the infusion consists of the shoots, stalk cuttings and twigs from the plants, which were drunk by the humble tea farmers after selling the more valuable leaves and buds. This was their drink.
Nowadays it is considered a green tea for connoisseurs. It has a light flavour and is very low in theine. The health benefits are numerous: rich in minerals, magnesium and calcium. In the West, it is one of the most appreciated teas for its mineralising and alkalizing power.
Ingredients: Kukicha green tea.
