Sugimoto Tea Yuzu Matcha Kukicha

Sugimoto Tea Company Yuzu Matcha Kukicha is a flavor-rich green tea blend. The umami delight of matcha and the natural sweetness of kukicha are complemented by the tartness of dried Japanese yuzu peel. Yuzu is a Japanese citrus fruit similar to lemons and oranges, and it adds a unique floral fragrance to the tea. The blend features green stems and leaves with yellow or green citrus peel pieces. The flavor profile includes vegetal and savory notes with a brisk citrus zest, and the aroma carries a citrus aroma with vegetal undertones. It is an all-natural product.
