Hola! Guten tag! That's about as international as I can get...
Always good to see a new person on zee board. You should also try the kukicha. Definitely the kukicha.

Kukicha has a little more body than your average green tea, I find. It's a little more earthy, not as grassy to me as other Japanese greens like sencha. I think perhaps the term would be "woody" but I'm not sure. I don't know tea terminology. Does that help at all?

Correct me if I am wrong, isn't kukicha available green and roasted. I have the roasted. It is nice in the evening do to low caffeine content...or so I have read. But it has a nice mellow toasty flavor. The unroasted would obviously taste quite different.teaspoon wrote:Kukicha has a little more body than your average green tea, I find.
