Japanese Karigane Loose Leaf Green Tea
3 reviewsThis beautifully balanced Japanese loose leaf green tea is made from the leaves and stem of the highest grade gyokuro. Sourced from the small but legendary organic farm of the Sakamoto family.
Karigane translates as 'Wild Goose' - supposedly because the pale colour of the stems against the green leaf look like wild geese sitting in the branches of trees.
It is also known as stem tea, kukicha or twig tea.

Lovely green tea
This is a really lovely green tea which has a sweet umami taste - it is very smooth and fresh.
Amazing!
Powerful Cha Qi, that evokes Cha Zui! This is hands down my new favorite green tea by a mile! This is my new go to tea for special occasions and relaxation! I will 100% be keeping this one hand and reordering. If you like green tea and the Cha Zui feeling then this is your tea! Tasting notes are spot on. Infused in gaiwan 30 seconds at 158 degrees. Second infusion increased to 45 seconds. Third infusion increased to 60 seconds.
Like meeting an old friend again.
Recently bought this lovely karigane tea. When I opened the pouch, the aroma brought back memories of enjoying kukicha tea in the quiet early morning before a busy day. Happy that Rare Tea Company has one of my old favorites and will order again.
