It’s been a little while since I’ve had a Genmaicha – at least a week or two! And in that time I’ve consumed a lot of tea… but it isn’t until I get to another Genmaicha that I remember just what I’ve been missing. I love the comforting aroma and taste of the sweet toasted rice.
This is a very nice Genmaicha – sweet and mellow. Just perfect after our shopping excursion earlier today. Just what I needed.

Oooh shopping. I haven’t been shopping in ages (the grocery store does not count). ;) Tea sounds yummy too!!
You have just reminded me, I like Genmaicha quite a bit. I used to buy it at this nature store but they went out of business or relocated. Anyhow, the rice flavoring and the smokiness in the cup is divine. I would close my eyes and it was as if cooking a pot of rice and while it is steaming, inhale the flavorful scent of the rice and the warmth in the cooking/heating of it. Really nice. Thanks for reminder.
