Details
Many kukicha teas are green teas, but this kukicha is a black tea as it’s been highly oxidized and roasted. This gives the twigs a dark, ruddy red color and an intensely woodsy scent. The flavor is that of dried wood and blessed incense lit for the gods.
Kukicha is a unique tea that is wonderful with a bit of citrus juice and a shot of simple syrup. This tea loves to be served with dried fruits or roasted walnuts, or used as a beverage alongside a farro salad or a baked squash coated in brown sugar and cinnamon.
