Kukicha'n'Matcha ~

Kukicha is a type of Japanese tea that is made from the stems and twigs of the tea plant, rather than the leaves. When combined with Matcha, it creates a unique blend that combines the light, delicate flavor of Kukicha with the rich, vibrant taste of Matcha. Here a detailed description: - Kukicha: Known as "twig tea," Kukicha is produced by using the stems and twigs of the Camellia sinensis plant. It is often described as having a light, slightly sweet flavor with a hint of nuttiness. The stems and twigs are harvested during the tea leaf production process and then processed separately to create this distinct tea. - Matcha: Matcha is a finely ground green tea powder made from the young leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant. It is grown in the shade to increase chlorophyll and L-theanine content, which enhances its flavor and nutritional profile. Matcha is traditionally used in the Japanese tea ceremony and is known for its rich, slightly bitter taste and vibrant green color.

Drinking Kukicha can be a meditative experience, encouraging the drinker to appreciate the simple things in life. - Matcha: - Japanese Tea Ceremony: Matcha is deeply rooted in the traditional Japanese tea ceremony (Chanoyu, Sado or Ocha), which is a highly ritualized and formalized ceremony in which green tea is prepared and presented to guests in a specially designed room. - Historical Significance: Matcha was introduced to Japan from China in the 12th century and became an integral part of Japanese culture, particularly in the Zen monasteries where it was used to help monks stay awake during long hours of meditation.
