Buckwheat tea
Buckwheat tea, known as memil-cha in Korea, soba-cha in Japan, and kuqiao-cha in China, is a tea made from roasted buckwheat. Like other traditional [Korean tea]s, memil-cha can be drunk either warm or cold and is sometimes served in place of water. Recently, tartari buckwheat grown in Gangwon [Province, South Korea|Gangwon Province] has been popular for making memil-cha, as it is nuttier and contains more rutin.
