Description

Very popular in Japan, genmaicha tea is a sencha or bancha green tea with roasted or puffed brown rice (genmaicha literally means “brown rice tea”). Sometimes called “popcorn tea” or “yellow tea,” it is recognizable by its toasted grain notes, which give it a delicate flavor. Grown in mild climate regions of Japan (such as the subtropical island of Kyushu), Genmaicha was once considered the poor man’s tea because it was “cut” with rice.

Today, it is one of the most widely consumed teas in Japan, from morning to night, all year round. Tonic but low in caffeine, Genmaicha aids digestion and is an ideal accompaniment to meals, especially fish and seafood. Refreshing, it gently energizes the body, and its characteristic herbal, malty taste is generally appreciated by those put off by the astringency of green tea.

How to use:

1- Add 8 to 10g of Genmaicha tea to 2 cups of tea in a filter teapot.
2- Boil the water, but do not exceed 80°C!
3- Pour the water directly into the teapot.
4- Let it stand for 30 seconds without stirring.
5- Slowly pour the tea into your cups until the last drop.

This tea can be brewed two or three times.
