What is Kukicha Twig Tea? The twigs and stems of the same plant that are used to make black tea and green tea are used to make kukicha, a kind of traditional Japanese tea. The leaves harvested for kukicha mature for three years before roasting. This tea is also known as twig tea. Because only kukicha tea contains between 0.5 and 1% caffeine, it is also referred to as "three-year tea." This designation is because the stems and branches that are used to make kukicha tea have been on the tea plant for at least three years, during which time they have lost almost all of their caffeine content. They have absorbed all the nutrients and vitamins in the natural environment. Kukicha tea has a peculiar taste. It has a flavor that is reminiscent of sweetness, cream, and a hint of nuts. Kukicha Twig Tea is amazingly convenient for any occasion! How to use Kukicha Twig Tea? One should bear in mind that kukicha is steeped, whereas other teas are simmered. This can be achieved by avoiding oversteeping the tea and reducing the simmering time dramatically. You can enjoy this tea either steaming or chilled.
