Soba Cha as a warm or chilled infusion

Soba Cha is easy to enjoy in different ways. When served warm, this buckwheat tea tastes especially rounded and aromatic. Slightly cooled, it becomes soft and pleasantly nutty. For a chilled version, prepare the tea hot first and then allow it to cool, so the roasted aroma remains balanced.

Preparation of buckwheat tea

Pour boiling water over the buckwheat tea and let it steep briefly. The steeping time can be adjusted depending on the desired intensity. For a softer taste, steep it a little shorter; for a more pronounced roasted aroma, let it infuse slightly longer.

Storage of roasted buckwheat tea

To preserve its fine aroma, buckwheat tea should be stored in a dry, cool and well-sealed place. It is best kept away from direct sunlight, moisture and strong surrounding odours. This helps maintain the nutty roasted note for as long as possible.
