Kukicha - A First Experience
Posted: Nov 25th, '07, 20:34
So while strolling around my Whole Foods, I was eyeing the Kukicha...and decided what the hell, let's give it a whirl.
I get home and ask my loving friends using the instant messenger how they prefer there Kuki, and the method i end up going with was a first brew of one minute. a second brew of about 20 or 30 seconds, and a final brew of one minute.
The first two cups were delicious but the third was a little too watery, maby a minute 15 seconds next time?
But I was wondering, how do the rest of you brew? I saw that Rishi reccomended 3 minutes at a nice 180.....
All in all i loved the tea, and probably preferable to me than, dare a say it, Fukamushi....
