Gekko (Alpinia zerumbet) is attracting attention from the beauty industry as an anti-aging herb due to its polyphenol content, which is about 34 times that of red wine. Gekko, a herb from the ginger family, is also popular as a medicinal herb that warms the body, promotes circulation from within, and supports the improvement of physical constitution and the creation of healthy, radiant skin.
It also contains dietary fiber, which is often lacking in modern Japanese people, as well as minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and iron.
Furthermore, gekko soothes physical and mental tension caused by stress, regulates bodily functions, and works on issues like insomnia, bringing relaxation.
It leads to a calm state of mind and activates the brain, making it effective when you want to improve concentration and memory.
Uchiumi Herb Garden's gekko tea is naturally grown without pesticides, chemical fertilizers, or any animal-derived fertilizers.
《How to Enjoy》
・Place an appropriate amount in a teapot or kyusu (Japanese teapot) of about 400-500cc, pour in boiling water, and steep for about 3-4 minutes. When using a kyusu, the trick is to let it steam well after pouring in the hot water.
・When boiling, add about 5-10g of tea leaves to a pot with 1000ml of water and bring to a boil over high heat. After boiling, reduce to low heat for 2-3 minutes. Then remove from heat. Alternatively, after boiling, simmer over low heat for about 15 minutes to bring out a fruity sweetness and delicious flavor.
*Does not contain caffeine.
*If you are undergoing treatment for a disease, please consult your doctor before use.
