A nutty Japanese "popcorn" concoction: steamed loose leaf green tea layered with popped pieces of toasted rice.

Full Description
When Japanese farmers first tried the trick of adding toasted rice to their tea, they soon realised that the springlike taste of steamed green tea was a surprisingly good match for crispy, roasted flavours. Popped pieces of toasted rice give the appearance of popcorn, and Genmaicha tends to be a hit with anyone fond of the slightly savoury taste the Japanese call “umami”.
We'd recommend trying our loose leaf Genmaicha with a handful of toasted pumpkin and sunflower seeds – ideal as a flavoursome energy boost.
