“Twig Tea” is a specialty of the early spring made by meticulously processing leaf and stalk cuttings from Sencha production. Lightly creamy and nutty, this treat brews up a bright yellow-green, but does not have the vegetal boldness of its Sencha cousin. Low in caffeine and delicious on ice.
Preparation: 3 g tea leaves (1 heaping teaspoon) per 8oz cup of filtered water, boiled and cooled to 70°C/158°F. Allow to brew 2 min.
