Genmaicha
This genmaicha is a simple combination of sencha tea grown in Kyoto, Japan and toasted brown rice. The humble origins of this tea blend come from post WWII Japan where toasted rice was added to stretch tea during uncertain times. Over time, it has grown into a popular staple in the tea world served both hot and chilled. Its distinct mildness with nutty and toasted character is refreshing and balanced.
Because of its low caffeine content, genmaicha is often considered suitable for those sensitive to caffeine and can be enjoyed later in the day.
