An additive-free tea made only from Hokkaido buckwheat groats. Its toastiness and strong aroma stand out; besides drinking it as tea, it is also delicious cooked together with rice.

What Japanese buyers say

The one reviewer says this additive-free tea made from 100 percent Hokkaido tartary buckwheat has far stronger roasted aroma than the imported kind. They also cook the buckwheat grains with rice at home and chose it as a gift for friends in Honshu.
