Genmaicha | Green Tea Blend

Genmaicha is a unique Japanese Bancha organic green tea blended with popped rice which gives it a great nutty flavor. This blend comes from the Kagoshima Prefecture. Genmaicha is often brewed in large bowls in Japan and the floating puffed rice are eaten as a small snack to accompany the tea. The puffed rice is called "blossom" or "flower" and can also be sieved out of the brew.
