Tasting Notes:

Genmaicha tea originated in Japan during the 15th century, when tea was a luxury item that only the wealthy could afford. In order to make their tea supplies last longer, the Japanese began adding roasted rice to their green tea, creating a new blend that was more affordable and accessible to everyone. Today, genmaicha is enjoyed by people all over the world for its delicious taste and unique history.

The roasted rice in genmaicha not only adds a nutty flavor and aroma to the tea, but also helps to balance out the bitterness of the green tea. The roasting process gives the rice a distinct, toasty flavor that complements the vegetal taste of the green tea perfectly. The result is a warming and soothing tea that's perfect for any time of day.

Lucy K. ★★★★★

The roasted rice aroma hits you the moment you open the bag, and it steeps into a toasty, comforting cup that’s not too grassy. I’ve been drinking it every afternoon this week, and the balance between the green tea and the puffed rice is just right.

Matthew Z. ★★★★★

The rice pieces give it a nutty, almost popcorn-like base that balances the grassy green tea perfectly, and it steeps up a warm golden color. I've been reaching for it every afternoon since the bag arrived.

Adam G. ★★★★★

The toasted rice aroma hits you the moment the bag opens, and the roasted, nutty flavor comes through perfectly in every sip. I've been brewing it in the mornings and the gentle green tea base is smooth enough to drink without any sweetener.
