A crisp, roasted twist on a classic green tea. In ancient Asia, green tea was such a luxury product that roasted rice was often added to eke it out. This created a style called Genmaicha, also known as popcorn tea or the people’s tea. It has the vitality and grassiness of green tea combined with a toasted nutty depth from the roasted rice. This elegant balance of freshness and richness makes it a wonderful tea for drinking with food, particularly sushi, pastry and any dishes with nutty, toasty, roasty and umami flavours. Let the bag sit in not quite boiling water for at least three minutes so that its beautiful crisp flavour is released.
