Genmaicha Uji
Rustic flavors from roasted rice, along with an elegant sencha from the first harvest of spring.
Out of stock
Art.Nr.#: 3005
Description / Genmaicha Uji
Roasted rice together with sencha becomes genmaicha. Rustic toasted tones from the rice paired with the elegance of the first harvest sencha, it really is something special. Sometimes genmaicha is incorrectly called "popcorn tea", but as I said, it is made from rice, not corn.
We sometimes call genmaicha "Japanese bark bread". One can assume that it originally arose because rice was cheaper than tea. But it is a long time ago, and genmaicha has become a popular tea in its own right.
Our genmaicha comes from Uji outside Kyoto, the cradle of Japanese tea culture.
Can be drunk as it is, or with lighter dishes.

Very good rice.

I leave it for 2 minutes. A little longer than the recommendation. It turns out very well. The proportions of rice and tea are not quite right towards the end of the bag but you can fix that if you put it in a jar.
