Kokeicha Green Tea represents a historical tradition of Japanese tea culture. After the Sencha leaves are steamed and dried, the tea is ground into a very fine powder.
This is then worked with water and a small amount of rice starch, then pressed to obtain a compact block which, once dried, is cut into regular sticks. This technique gives the tea an unmistakable appearance, similar to small pine needles of anthracite green, and ensures a constant, rich and smooth infusion.
