Morimoto Kukicha (organic) - Light everyday green tea with spring freshness
Are you looking for an uncomplicated tea that will gently ease you into the fascinating world of Japanese green teas - without compromising on quality? Morimoto Kukicha (organic) could become your new favorite
.
This particularly mild kukicha is made from the first spring leaves and delicate leaf stems of the tea plant - a composition that gives it a pleasantly light and floral fragrance. Incidentally, kukicha literally means "stem tea", and it is precisely these fine plant parts that provide the typical fresh, almost sweet aroma - without any bitterness.
Compared to the more delicate Morimoto Shiraore, this Kukicha is somewhat stronger in structure, but remains wonderfully balanced. The larger leaf and stem pieces give the infusion an elegant depth that is never overpowering.
An ideal companion for curious green tea explorers and anyone who wants to add a gentle green moment to their everyday life. Thanks to its simple preparation, Morimoto Kukicha is the perfect everyday green tea - and at the same time a good example of how versatile and nuanced Japanese tea can be. A real entry-level gem for your tea table.
