Product description Japanese Green Tea Genmaicha 100 g
Genmaicha is a delicate blend of roasted brown rice grains and Sencha tea that has been a favorite of tea connoisseurs in Japan for centuries. In its place of origin, it is one of the most popular teas drunk every day. The roasted brown rice contained in this tea gives Genmaichi its distinctive aroma. In many cases, Genmaicha is made from a mixture of roasted rice and a low variety of Sencha, Nibancha (second harvest tea) or Sanbancha (third harvest tea). Our Genmaicha is the only one made from the Ichibancha variety (first harvest tea of the year) and is available at reasonable prices. Therefore, we are confident that its flavor and aroma is definitely fuller and more refined than other Genmaicha varieties. If you too are a lover of this tea's specific aroma, we are sure you will be pleasantly surprised!

Recommended preparation of tea in a 0,6 l teapot:
first infusion
- pour 1 - 1.5 tablespoons of tea into the teapot so that the bottom of the teapot is roughly covered
- fill with boiled water at 60°C
- do not allow to infuse for 3-5 minutes, during taste and let it infuse longer or strain according to your preference
second infusion
- again pour boiled water over the tea, this time at a temperature of 60-70°C
- let it infuse for about 5-7 minutes (more or less according to your taste) and once the infusion suits your taste, strain
.
Note on preparation: the times given are approximate and it is good, for example, to pour off some tea after a certain time of infusion, taste it and, if necessary, strain the whole infusion or let it continue to infuse. The tea should be to your liking, and if you prefer stronger teas, for example, use more leaves or extend the steeping time. Don't be afraid to experiment with the tea, it's the only way to discover the flavours that suit you best.
