SUGIMOTO TEA Genmaicha Loose Leaf 1.0 lb - Matcha & Roasted Rice Green Tea for Tea Lovers

This delightful blend features roasted rice, green tea leaves, and matcha, culminating in a fragrant infusion that yields a vibrant green cup filled with nutty and toasty flavors. The early summer tea leaves lend a subtle hint of grassiness, while the addition of matcha imparts a smooth and creamy umami essence. Our tea is sourced from the Kakegawa region in Shizuoka, Japan, where its cultivation practices have been recognized by the United Nations as a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System due to their sustainability.

Genmaicha stands out as one of Japan's favorite tea varieties, cherished not only for its nutty flavor but also for its inviting toasty aroma. To ensure you experience the best flavor profile, we recommend following these steeping instructions: utilize a traditional Japanese teapot called a kyusu, which features a wide belt style inner mesh. To brew, add one tablespoon (5 grams) of Genmaicha to 10 ounces of water heated to 175°F or lower, and steep for 30 to 60 seconds.

Our product, labeled as JAPANESE MATCHA GENMAICHA LEAF, comes in a convenient package containing 1 pound (454 grams) of loose-leaf tea. Sugimoto Tea’s Matcha Genmaicha showcases an authentic Japanese blend, combining premium Sencha Green Tea, roasted rice, and matcha powder sourced directly from Shizuoka.
