Organic Genmai

Roasted brown rice for those who enjoy blending their own genmaicha. The rice is 100% organic, produced without using any artificial fertilizer or pesticide.

We recommend blending the organic genmai with sencha but it also works very well with kabusecha and gyokuro.

The usual blending ratio is 30-40% genmai and 60-70% green tea, but it depends on your taste. Feel free to experiment with ratio and make your own favorite genmaicha blend!

Please note, that the Genmai does not come with tea. For blending, the tea needs to be purchased separately.
