A traditional Japanese blend of steamed green tea and toasted brown rice, Genmaicha has been drunk in Japan for centuries - originally as a way to extend expensive tea with afforda ble grain, now valued in its own right for its distinctive character. The toasted rice brings warmth and a subtle nuttiness; the green tea cuts through with freshness and a light vegetal note. The result is a savoury, grounding cup that sits between a green tea and a roasted grain drink. Particularly good in the afternoon, and forgiving to brew. Show more
