We carefully select organic green tea from Uji, Kyoto, Japan. We have collaborated with local tea masters and we have a delightful tea plantation that has been protected by the tea farmers for over 350 years since the Genroku era. - MATCHA & SENCHA - Sencha are classified into leaves, stems, buds, and powders in the manufacturing process. It is a tea that collects the classified stems and blends it with matcha tea using a unique manufacturing method. - ORGANIC LOOSE LEAF - Japanese sencha green tea is one of the most popular beverages in Japan. The simple manufacturing process allows for a seemingly endless variety of flavors and aromas. It is characterized by the refreshing taste of the tea leaves in their natural state. It is also attracting attention as a health drink due to the nutritional components contained in the tea leaves. - HOT BREW & COLD BREW - Two most common ways to enjoy flavorful sencha green tea are hot brewing and cold brewing. Hot brewing method retains the health benefits of tea leaves and helps stay energized for the day while cold brew sencha green tea (Mizudashi Sencha) is considered to give a superior flavor and taste and especially a refresh drink during hot summer. - KUKICHA TEA - Also known as Karigane tea, Kukicha is a Japanese green tea made from the stems and stalks of sencha leaves. This organic loose leaf tea from Japan offers a mild sweetness, light umami, and smooth finish. Its gentle flavor makes it a perfect choice for those who enjoy a balanced, low-caffeine Japanese organic green tea. - From Father's Day and summer entertaining to back-to-school season, discover premium authentic Japanese teas from Yamasan Kyoto Uji.

Since matcha is normally a powder and kukicha twigs.** A: Thank you for interesting our product. This product is tea leaves but with some matcha powder inside. **Q: If I purchase this, will I get barley tea or green tea? The photos are for barley tea but the reviews are for green tea.** A: They put all reviews for the same company together. Under the review title you can see which product the review refers to. I have purchased Sencha and Hojicha from them and I got Sencha and Hojicha as described, not green tea. If you order this one you'll get this one. :) **Q: Is this basically black tea?** A: Thank you for your inquiry. Hojicha is a kind of Japanese green tea. Hojicha is roasted after the leaves are steamed. Along with removing all bitterness, the roasting process gives hojicha its reddish-brown color and a unique smoky taste. We also have organic black tea in our store. You can check it too. **Q: Is this barley tea gluten free?** A: No. barley is not a gluten free grain. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Green Tea *by R***S on April 17, 2026* At the time returning from a visit to Japan I found this tea and it tasted similar and as good as what I drank in Japan 👍 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ YAMASAN KYOTO UJI is my go–to brand. *by L***A on November 20, 2023* YAMASAN KYOTO UJI is my go–to brand.

Use a strainer. Deep, rich flavor. I did not find the dregs satisfactorily reusable, because the powder got drunk up, and the twigs aren't as strong in taste. ## Frequently Bought Together - chaganju Organic Green Tea, Kukicha Twig tea with Matcha Green Tea Powder, Japanese Tea -KARIGANE- 100g Bag【YAMASAN】 - chaganju Green Tea leaves Sencha, JAS Certified Organic, Japanese Green Tea, Uji-Kyoto, 80g Bag, Sencha Green Tea, Loose Leaf【YAMASAN】 - YAMASAN KYOTO UJI Hojicha Tea, Roasted green Tea, Low caffeine, JAS Certified Organic, Japanese Tea, 150g Bag --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/35868706-japanese-organic-kukicha-twig-tea-with-matcha-3-5oz-japanese](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/35868706-japanese-organic-kukicha-twig-tea-with-matcha-3-5oz-japanese) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-08-30*
