The Stem & The Petal This is not your standard green tea. Instead of using only the leaves, we use Organic Kukicha (Japanese Twig Tea). The stems of the tea plant hold less bitterness and more natural sweetness than the leaf, creating a creamy, nutty base that tastes almost milky. We blend these lime-green stems with vibrant pink Rose Petals for a tea that is visually stunning and incredibly smooth. Why It Works Most floral teas are astringent (dry) because they use low-grade tea bases. Kukicha is rich in L-theanine, which gives it a savory "umami" flavor. This savory creaminess acts as a bridge for the floral notes, grounding the rose so it tastes like a sweet confection rather than a bottle of perfume. It is low in caffeine, high in flavor, and requires absolutely no sugar. The Evening Ritual Low Caffeine, High Comfort. Because stems contain very little caffeine, this is the perfect "winding down" tea. Brew a cup after dinner when you want something elegant but gentle. The aroma of rose is known to calm the nervous system, making it a beautiful pre-sleep ritual.
