Product Description
This Itadori black tea blends classic Chinese black tea with polygonum cuspidatum (Japanese knotweed), creating a cup that feels both familiar and quietly herbal. The black tea base offers warmth, malt, and gentle astringency, while Itadori adds a subtle, earthy brightness and a touch of dryness on the finish.
The result is a grounded, everyday tea with a slightly more “structured” profile than a standard black—something you might reach for when you want a cup that tastes purposeful without leaning into strong flavors or added aromatics.
Enjoy it in the morning or afternoon, plain or with a small amount of sweetener. It sits comfortably between a straight black tea and a herbal-leaning blend, making it a good choice for drinkers who like the idea of a functional tea that still feels like tea.
