Organic Japanese Kukicha Tea

The tea Japanese masters never threw away. Thank goodness.

100% organic kukicha: green tea leaf, twig and stem, aged for at least 3 months and roasted at the end of the process. A sweet, toasty, herbaceous aroma. Zero additives, zero fillers, zero pretension: just the whole plant.

In Japan it began as the tea of people who wasted nothing: the stems and twigs left over from the sencha harvest were patiently roasted, and over time earned a reputation of their own. Today it's a biohacking favourite for the morning ritual: a functional ingredient from Camellia sinensis which, like all tea, naturally contains theine and L-theanine.

🍵 Toasty, sweet and herbaceous aroma: nothing like your average green tea
🌿 Leaf, twig and stem: the whole plant, nothing discarded
⏳ Aged for at least 3 months: and roasted at the end for its signature character
🍃 100% organic: no additives, no nonsense

How to have it at breakfast:
☕ As an alternative to your morning coffee: same ritual, different flavour
🫖 Freshly brewed in very hot water while you make the rest of breakfast
🍞 Alongside your toast or granola: the tea's roasted notes go with the toasted bread
🧊 Iced, if you'd rather start a summer morning with something more refreshing

Organic Japanese Kukicha Tea

Kukicha comes from Japan and is literally made from what other teas discard: the leaves, twigs and stems ofCamellia sinensisleft over after picking sencha or bancha. Far from a throwaway, that stem became a tea with a character of its own. The process starts with harvesting and a quick steaming, then cooling, and repeated rubbing and drying until you get "aracha," the raw green tea. From there comes the less usual part: a minimum three-month ageing period that settles the flavour, before it's cut, sifted, blended and — the step that gives it its signature — roasted. That final roast is what turns an ordinary green tea into something with sweet, grassy notes, closer to toasted grain than the vegetal green you might expect. A tea that started as a byproduct and ended up, for a lot of people, being the favourite part of the morning.
