Genmai - Everyday Loose Leaf Genmaicha from Uji, Kyoto by Shogyokuen

Genmai is Shogyokuen's everyday genmaicha - a blend of Uji green tea and roasted brown rice (genmai), produced by a factory established in 1827 in Uji, Kyoto. Clean, nutty, and accessible, it delivers genmaicha's characteristic warmth and approachability at the most affordable price point in the Chaseki Japanese tea range. A reliable everyday cup for home, café, or office.

About Genmai

Genmaicha is one of the most widely enjoyed Japanese everyday teas - its combination of fresh green tea and roasted rice produces a cup that is simultaneously familiar and distinctive. Genmai uses Shogyokuen's standard green tea base, which still benefits from Uji provenance and Hiroshi Kobayashi's production oversight - noticeably cleaner and more balanced than anonymous mass-market genmaicha at a comparable price.
