Genmaicha (pronounced GEN-MY-CHAH) is an exotic Japanese green tea. 

Genmaicha is frequently referred to as "popcorn tea" because the roasted brown rice kernels often "pop" open during processing.

Flavor Profile

Genmaicha is a blend of tender Japanese green tea leaves (Sencha tea) with toasted, popped brown rice. The popped rice reduces the astringency of the Sencha green tea and creates a sweet and nutty flavor. Genmaicha is considered an easy-to-drink green tea.

The nutty flavor adds a delightful twist to the traditional green tea taste. The smoothness and subtle sweetness of this tea make Genmaicha a popular choice among both experienced tea enthusiasts and novices.

Genmaicha Tea Benefits

In addition to its unique flavor, Genmaicha benefits the body in several ways. It acts as a diuretic that may relieve bloating and water retention. Ridding your body of excess water and toxins creates a feeling of lightness and well-being.

The high antioxidant content in this smooth green tea can help protect the body against free radicals and oxidative stress. These antioxidants have been linked to a reduced risk of chronic diseases, such as heart disease and certain types of cancer.

The combination of green tea and popped rice provides a gentle energy boost without the jitters often associated with caffeine. Genmaicha has a moderate level of caffeine. It is a great alternative to coffee or other caffeinated beverages for those looking for a milder pick-me-up in the afternoon.
