Green Tea
Genmaicha
Origin: Japan
Price: $18
Description
Toasty and bakey with slight buttery notes. Popped rice kernels provide an excellent visual and impart the unique flavor of the tea.
The blend brings together green tea, roasted rice and popped rice.
To brew, steep about 2 g (one teaspoon) per cup in water at 75–80°C for 2–3 minutes. It also makes a refreshing iced tea: brew it strong and pour it over ice. With moderate caffeine, it is an easy cup for the afternoon.
