Genmaicha (pronounced with a hard G, GEN-MY-CHAH) is an exotic Japanese green tea with snap, crackle, and pop!
Some refer to this tea as "popcorn tea" as the rice kernels tend to pop during the roasting process.
This special blend combines toasted, popped brown rice with tender green tea leaves. The addition of popped rice reduces the astringency of the green tea and creates a sweet and nutty flavor. It is considered an easy-to-drink green tea.
