Tasting Notes: toasty, nutty, savory, vegetal

Description: Genmaicha is a traditional Japanese green tea made by blending steamed sencha with roasted brown rice. This premium version uses organic sencha rather than bancha, resulting in a more brothy, grassy, and flavorful cup.

The roasted rice brings a rich, toasty aroma that balances beautifully with the green tea’s vegetal notes. Expect a savory infusion with hints of steamed greens, toasted nuts, and fresh-cut grass.

Low in caffeine and full of comfort, Genmaicha is a favorite for everyday sipping and pairs especially well with food. Often served in Japanese restaurants, it’s both familiar and satisfying.

We offer only the premium grade of Genmaicha, crafted with higher quality sencha to ensure depth, smoothness, and clarity in every cup.

Ingredients: organic blend of sencha green tea and roasted brown rice from Japan

Steep Time: steep 1 heaping teaspoon of tea per 8 oz below boiling water, 160-175°F, for 45 seconds to 2 minutes

Low Caffeine

Hannah K. ★★★★☆

Brewed a cup this morning and the toasty, nutty notes really come through nicely—much more satisfying than I expected from a genmaicha. The 40% off made it a great value for the quality, though I wish the bag were a bit larger for the price.

Penelope ★★★☆☆

I was hoping for a stronger toasted rice flavor, but the vegetal notes from the sencha are nice and balanced. The 40% off made it a decent value for everyday drinking.

Hannah ★★★☆☆

The savory, vegetal sencha base is a bit stronger than I expected, so it overpowers the nutty rice notes for me. It's a decent everyday cup, but I'll probably steep it for less time next round to soften that grassy edge.
