Product Story

Houttuynia, called dokudami in Japan, is a leafy herb that has long been brewed as a tea, though plain houttuynia tea has a reputation for a strong smell. This blend softens it with roasted barley, brown rice, soybean and oolong, and adds herbs and leaves such as eucommia, persimmon leaf and jiaogulan. It is made by a maker in Komaki, Aichi, and today two boxes give you 48 tea bags with caffeine not detected on the label.
