Rich’s Tea of the Week: Ryokucha Midori Japanese Green

A flat leaf and a vibrant taste make this tea perfect starting the day. Low in caffeine, it is invigorating but doesn’t give a buzz. According to Palais des Thes, Ryokucha Midori literally means “tea of the Samurai,” and it was reserved for their use.

This tea requires a 2 minute warm steep and is served in a bowl (or to go).
