Kuki Cha Green

Kuki Cha Green is a Japanese tea that gives a nutty, sweet flavor. The taste is reminisce of roasted corn and toasted nuts. This interesting flavor evokes fragrances of all things roasted and toasted.

Another name for this tea is stem, or twig tea because the stems and stalks of the tea leaf are added to the mix. Stem tea is made from the stems and stalks of higher end teas, like Gyokuro or Sen Cha. Kuki Cha has slightly less caffeine because of the stalks and stems, which little if any caffeine. The stalks and stems are are also the reason why this tea has a sweetness to it. With less leaf, which generally has more astringency, there is then more room for the taste of the sweeter stems and stalks. This green tea is also a good choice to drink in the evening due to less caffeine. However, it is also calming and good for your stomach!
