Review: OUR FAVORITE TEA! - We're seniors, and follow a strict Macrobiotic diet for health and longevity. Kukicha tea is a recommended beverage on our diet because it's so low in caffeine and aids digestion. We typically have a cup after meals. We love the mild, pleasant flavor and tummy soothing effects. We've found the tea bags much more convenient and less messy to use than dealing with loose tea.
Review: So delicious!!! - I just love this tea! First time trying it and will definitely buy this brand again!! Pleasantly impressed!!! Thanks

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Where is your tea grown?**
A: Most of our teas come from Shizuoka, Japan, known for clean mountain air, mineral-rich soil, and a long tea-growing tradition. We work directly with local farmers to ensure top quality, freshness, and sustainable practices.

**Q: How should I store the tea after opening?**
A: To preserve green tea, avoid sunlight, heat, humidity, and oxygen. Once opened, store in an opaque, airtight container away from light and heat. Before opening, our nitrogen-flushed packaging helps lock in peak freshness.

**Q: Do your teas contain caffeine?**
A: Yes, all our teas contain natural caffeine, but levels vary by type and brewing method. For less caffeine, try genmaicha, hojicha, or cold brew, which can significantly reduce caffeine content.

**Q: What makes your green tea different?**
A: Our tea is made for everyday enjoyment. After rising to the top of Japan’s tea industry, Hiroyuki Sugimoto developed a unique high roast method. We source farm-direct to ensure the leaves can handle this process and deliver rich, consistent flavor.

**Q: What are your teabags made of?**
A: Our teabags are made of Soilon, a plant-based material derived from starch and designed for disposal through industrial waste systems.
