⋅ Deep umami flavor
⋅ Herbal notes accented by toasted rice

A unique tea is created by sprinkling matcha over genmaicha, giving this infusion a distinctive emerald color. Genmaicha and matcha are very popular choices in Japan. Genmaicha is made by blending green tea with puffed rice grains, giving it a sweet taste with nutty notes. Its origins date back to Japan’s working-class communities, where tea—rare and precious—was mixed with rice to make it last as long as possible. As for matcha, it is a green tea powder characterized by an umami and slightly sweet taste. Traditionally prepared by whisking it with water using a special whisk, matcha adds bitterness and umami to genmaicha, thus balancing its flavors.

Les clients ont salué ce thé matcha genmaicha comme « probablement le meilleur thé disponible en vrac » et comme « une merveille ». Le mélange est très dynamique avec une saveur prononcée de riz grillé mélangée à une quantité généreuse de matcha. Les clients recommandent de suivre attentivement les instructions de trempage, car une infusion excessive peut rendre le goût trop prononcé.
