Bancha is usually classified as the lowest grade tea leaves, and this allows us to offer you something a bit better. By June, the leaves have matured, and we do a deep cropping to increase volume as well as to get slender pieces of twigs

as a natural way to reduce caffeine in tea as much as possible
