Kuwacha (Mulberry Leaf Tea)
Organic Kuwacha Mulberry Leaf Powder (1 oz)
Kuwacha, or mulberry leaf tea, is a naturally caffeine-free tisane made from finely ground mulberry leaves. Kuwacha is well-known for its high vitamin, mineral, and antioxidant content and is highly regarded in traditional medicine.
Mulberry leaves are a natural source of GABA, quercetin, chlorophyll, zinc, potassium, iron, calcium, carotenoids, vitamins (A1, B1, B2, C), and fiber. Many of its potential health benefits are attributed to its 1-deoxynojirimycin (DNJ) content. DNJ is a naturally occurring compound found in mulberry leaves that has been studied for its effects on blood sugar levels and carbohydrate absorption.
Delight your senses with this smooth, mellow, and well-rounded tisane, perfect for any time of day. The taste is reminiscent of green tea with grassy and vegetal notes but without any astringency.
Naturally caffeine-free herbal tisane.
