Genmai Cha

Genmai cha is a specialty Japanese green tea blend featuring fire-toasted rice. The fresh, vegetative quality of the green tea blends with the natural sweetness of the rice to create a nutty flavor. During the firing of the rice, it is not uncommon for rice to pop similar to popcorn. If you find this in your tea, it isn’t a mistake!
