Asahi Jurokucha (16-Grain Japanese Blend Tea) 630ml – Caffeine-Free Herbal Barley Tea Drink
Asahi Jurokucha (十六茶, literally “Sixteen Teas”) is one of the most iconic everyday drinks in Japan — a refreshing, caffeine-free blended grain and herbal tea created for daily hydration and gentle body care.
Instead of a single tea leaf, this beverage combines 16 carefully selected grains, herbs, and plant ingredients, producing a clean, lightly roasted flavor that sits somewhere between barley tea and mild herbal tea. The taste is soft, smooth, and naturally refreshing without bitterness or sweetness, which is why many Japanese people drink it throughout the day.
Because it contains no caffeine, Jurokucha is suitable for children, elderly people, and even before sleep. In Japan it is commonly consumed with meals, after bathing, during hot summers, and as an everyday hydration drink rather than a stimulant beverage like coffee or green tea.
The drink is brewed to deliver a natural aroma of roasted grains and gentle herbal notes, offering hydration without heaviness. It quenches thirst very effectively, especially in warm weather, while remaining mild enough for sensitive stomachs.

Cultural Note
In Japan, drinks like Jurokucha are not considered “tea” in the Western sense. They are part of daily life — closer to water but with functional plant ingredients. Many households keep it in the refrigerator as a standard hydration drink instead of soda.
