Organic Kukicha green tea comes from Kirishima, Kagoshima, and was machine-picked in early spring. Its leaves and stems ("kuki" in Japanese means precisely "stem, twig") are the distinctive element of this particular Japanese tea. Made from the Yabukita cultivar, this tea has a delicate vegetal aroma and a good level of umami, accompanied by a very subtle nutty note that enhances its sweetness on the palate. Tasting – Appearance and Aroma Organic Kukicha green tea consists mainly of short stems ranging from yellow-green to straw-colored, very light in color, with some needle-shaped, crisp leaves in dark green and forest green. Once infused, the leaves and stems release vegetal and savory aromas reminiscent of fresh vegetable soup, along with an almost toasted nutty scent. The liquor in the cup is golden, very luminous and rather transparent. Tasting Notes CLASSIC TEAPOT OR KYUSU The flavor of Organic Kukicha green tea is characterized mainly by sweet and savory vegetal notes: it opens with notes of sautéed herbs, vegetable broth and broccoli, with a distinct and very pleasant umami. Unexpected cashew and chestnut notes then emerge on the finish, with a sweet, smooth ending. The body is dense and enveloping, with very slight astringency and just a hint of bitterness that balances well with the sweetness of the umami. The finish remains vegetal and savory, of medium length. Place of origin Kirishima, Kagoshima, Japan Brewing method Place 5 grams of Organic Kukicha green tea leaves (approximately three teaspoons) in a Japanese Kyusu teapot or, if unavailable, in a teapot preferably with a wide, flat base. Pour 250 ml of water at 80°C over the leaves and begin pouring the infusion into the cups after two minutes. To make the most of the leaves and continue the tasting experience, we also recommend three more infusions of the same leaves using the same quantity and temperature parameters, extending the brewing time by 5–10 seconds. The tea may be strained for easier tasting, and the brewing times indicated above are purely suggestive, so they can also be adjusted according to personal taste. Since this is a Japanese green tea, remember that it can also be deliciously infused in cold water before proceeding with hot water. For the cold infusion, using the same grams of leaves per quantity of water, we recommend a brewing time of approximately 10 minutes. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
