All teas came from the plant Camellia Sinensis, and Organic Kukicha is no exception. Organic Kukicha, called the "twig tea", is made from a blend of organic twigs, stems and a few mature dried leaves from all harvesting seasons. It
It is known that Kukicha contains 90% less caffeine than regular coffee, which is a very good substitute for Green Tea lover to benefit the nutrition without the worry of having too much caffeine.
Harvested near the southern part of Kyoto, our tea leaves are 100% organically grown with chemical free biomass and water.
Kukicha is produced by the Nagata Family who unlike most farmers was the first to produce Organic Tea in Japan. Instead of using fertilizers, chemical, animal maure, herbicides or pesticides to fertilize their tea garden soil, the Nagatas have discovered new agricultural methods to nuture tea plants that produce tea twice as long a period of time and twice as powerful as their nutritious value.
