Description

The exceptional top tier Gyokuro Imperial is intuitively paired with toasted brown "genmaicha" rice resulting in a highly aromatic medium bodied green tea blend.

The taste is pleasant with a hint of nutty roasted rice and a mild aftertaste.

Genmaicha is perfect with meals, warm conversation or quiet contemplation; especially popular during cold winter time. Genmaicha is sometimes referred to as popcorn tea because a few grains of the rice pop during the roasting process and resemble popcorn.
