HERITAGE, HANDCRAFTED MIMASAKA STICK BOCHA
This tea is a beautiful byproduct of Musashi's bancha, obtained when the tea trees are pruned (carefully) in summer.
Unlike kukicha (made with gentle twigs) this tea is unapologetically made with sticks and branches of the Zairai tea bushes used for Musashi's bancha.
The brew is particularly sweet, with notes of caramel and roast barley. Being made with twigs instead of leaves, the tea is ideal for drinking in the evenings, after dinner.
