You've had a busy day and now you want to give yourself time to wind down before you slip into bed. Dim the lights, grab a cosy blanket and steep yourself a cup of tea to sip on while you quietly sit on the sofa reading a book or watching TV. 

The three teas in our Wind Down box are ultra-low in caffeine and beautifully mellow in flavour to help you ease the stresses of the day and calm you before bed. 

Our Wind Down box comes with:

~ Three 20g pouches of loose leaf tea (descriptions below)
~ Our Finum tea glass infuser (double-walled glass, steeping net and lid/drip tray in one - the BEST devise to steep and sip your tea)
~ Our long-handled teaspoon
~ Our tea steeping guide and a little card to introduce the box  

All you need to create a tranquil end to your day. 

The teas in our Wind Down box are:

Suzume 'Sparrow' Kukicha
Roasted green tea, Japan
Flavour: mocha, raw sugar, wood, apricot ~ ultra-light
Smooth and ultra-light in body, this Kukicha tea is made entirely from stems of summer harvest leaves. This tea reflects the ‘wholeness’ philosophy of Japanese Zen Buddhism where the tea farm uses the entire tea leaf without wasting any of its parts. The stems are steamed, dried then roasted, creating a rustic and mellow tea with aromas of baked apricot, caramelised sugar, mocha and wood. It is very low in caffeine. July 2020 harvest tea.  

Amber Hojicha
Roasted green tea, Japan
Flavour: caramelised nut, firewood, maple ~ medium bodied, low caffeine
This special Hojicha tea is made with sencha leaves which are roasted; a process that transforms the leaves into a warm brown colour and changes their flavour. Amber Hojicha infuses into a deep amber-coloured tea with dark and moody notes of caramelised nut, firewood, tobacco and maple. Hojicha has a low caffeine content, making it the perfect choice for a relaxing, after-dinner drink.

Hoji-Genmaicha
Roasted green tea, Japan
Flavour: rice bubbles, charred wood, toffee ~ light-bodied, low caffeine
Hoji-Genmaicha is a blend of hojicha (roasted green tea) and roasted mochi brown rice. After harvest, leaves are steamed, rolled, dried and roasted, then blended with the roasted rice. The infused tea’s sweet and nutty fragrance draws you in. It is light in body and moreish with delicious notes of firewood, roasted nuts, toffee and rice bubbles. Its caffeine content is very low. This June 2021 harvest. 

These teas come from Obubu Tea Farm, Kyoto Japan - an agricultural social venture with a strong focus on high-quality tea, community contribution and tea education.

Each tea is 20 grams and the leaves can be steeped at least twice. If you would like to purchase the teas only in our small gift box (without the infuser glass and spoon - although we highly recommend these!), select 'small box - teas only' in 'Size' above.
