Features
5g Resistant-Dextrin Fiber Per 7g Stick: Each 7g stick supplies 5g of resistant-dextrin fiber. The maker reports that this fiber moderates rises in triglycerides and blood glucose after a meal. The package states the daily serving clearly: one stick with a meal.
0mg Caffeine Per Stick: Each stick contains 0mg caffeine. The mixed-tea extract includes roasted grains, leaves and other plant ingredients, giving you a caffeine-free option to prepare with your meal.
30 Individual 7g Sticks (210g Total): The box contains 30 single-serve sticks, enough for one daily serving with a meal for 30 days. Each stick is pre-measured, so there's no scooping or guessing.
Food with Function Claims Notification G 289: This product is registered in Japan under notification G 289. That means the maker has filed scientific evidence with Japan's Consumer Affairs Agency for the fiber's reported effects on post-meal triglycerides and blood glucose.
16-Ingredient Roasted Tea Blend: The powder includes 16 plant ingredients such as Job's tears, barley, brown rice, black soybeans, kelp, and persimmon leaves. It dissolves in water for a roasted, toasty tea flavor.
Mix with 150ml Hot or Cold Water: Stir one stick into about 150ml of hot or cold water. It dissolves quickly, so you can enjoy it warm in winter or chilled in summer.
5.2g Total Dietary Fiber Per Stick: Along with the 5g functional resistant dextrin, each stick provides 5.2g of total dietary fiber. That's a meaningful fiber boost in a 9.7-calorie drink.
Benefits
A measured fiber serving with your meal: Each stick provides 5g of resistant-dextrin fiber. The maker reports that this ingredient moderates rises in triglycerides and blood glucose after a meal. It gives you a clearly measured way to include that functional fiber in one daily meal, rather than guessing a powder portion.
Stir and drink—no steeping, no waiting: The powder dissolves quickly in hot or cold water, so there's no tea bag to steep or strain. Just stir one stick into about 150ml and drink with your meal. It feels effortless, even on busy days.
A fragrant, roasted tea you'll actually enjoy: A roasted blend of sixteen grains, leaves, and black soybeans gives this tea a fragrant, toasty taste. It's easy to drink and feels like a comforting cup, not a supplement, so you can look forward to it daily.
A caffeine-free choice for your meal: There is 0mg caffeine in each stick, so you can choose a warm cup with dinner without adding caffeine to the meal. It offers the familiar pleasure of roasted tea while keeping your daily serving simple.
Backed by Japan's Food with Function Claims G 289: This is a Food with Function Claims product under notification G 289, meaning the maker has filed scientific evidence for its ingredient. The 5g resistant dextrin is reported to moderate post-meal triglyceride and blood sugar rises, giving you a clear, documented reason to choose it.
5g of fiber in every single stick: One 7g stick provides 5g of functional resistant-dextrin fiber, with 5.2g total dietary fiber and 9.7kcal. Those clearly stated amounts make it easy to understand what your small cup contains.
Thirty servings, ready to portion: Thirty individual sachets let you take just one serving to work or keep the box beside your cups. Open only the stick you need and use it promptly; the remaining sticks stay sealed until another day.
How to Use
Tear open one 7g stick.
Pour the powder into a cup.
Add about 150ml of hot or cold water.
Stir well until the powder dissolves.
Drink once daily with a meal.
Who Is This For
The Post-Meal Health Watcher: You already check labels and keep a drink with meals because you want your post-meal blood sugar and triglyceride levels to stay steady. Maybe you've tried other functional teas that tasted flat, didn't dissolve well, or left you guessing about the effect. Asahi Jurokucha Powder is different: one stick mixes into about 150ml of hot or cold water, dissolves quickly, and gives you 5g of resistant dextrin fiber with a roasted, fragrant tea taste and zero caffeine. It's made for that once-a-day meal ritual—simple to carry, easy to sip, and designed around the exact thing you're watching.
Product Story
The familiar roasted character of a sixteen-ingredient blended tea meets a measured fiber serving in Asahi Group Foods’ Jurokucha Powder with Meals. Grains such as barley and brown rice sit alongside black soybeans, leaves and other botanicals in the mixed-tea extract. Resistant dextrin supplies the functional core:5g of dietary fiber in each 7g stick.
The product is notified in Japan as a Food with Function Claims underG 289. Its maker reports that resistant dextrin moderates rises in triglycerides and blood glucose after a meal; this is an ingredient-based function claim, not a medicine or an individually government-evaluated product. The practical format is straightforward:thirty individually sealed sticks, one mixed with about 150ml of hot or cold water alongside one meal each day. That brings the tea-and-meal routine into a portable portion, with 0mg caffeine and the serving instructions printed on the package.
