Kuki Sencha Teabags (Teapot Size) [三角茶袋 くき煎茶] 9 Bags
These tea bags hold Sencha Karigane, a kuki-sencha made primarily from the stems (kuki) of green tea leaves. Nine pyramid sachets of 7g each, sourced from Kyoto, Shiga, and Nara.
Stems carry concentrated umami with less astringency than leaf-only sencha, so the cup is rounded, faintly sweet, and easy on the palate. Steep one sachet in 90°C water for about 30 seconds for a bright, vegetal pour. A clean, everyday green tea that brews quickly.
From Ippodo Tea, in Kyoto since 1717.
