Shiraore (Kukicha) is usually made exclusively from the stems of the tea plant. The tea develops a strong green tea flavour on the nose, while the taste is mild and pleasantly smooth with a fruity note. An uncomplicated tea for the whole day.
The tea comes from the small Chiyonoen tea farm, which is run by Masashi and Eri Harashima. Mainly leaves of the Yabukita variety are processed and blended with other teas grown on the farm - all 100% organic, without any chemical additives.
For a good drinking experience, we recommend steeping the tea leaves in water heated to 80°C for about one minute. As a guide: approx. 3 g (1 teaspoon) of tea leaves are sufficient for 200 ml of water.
