Japanese Tea Tradition Meets Innovation

Genmaicha's origins trace back to a practical innovation in Japanese tea culture. Originally, rice was added to tea to make it more accessible to all social classes, earning it the nickname people's tea. The addition of matcha represents a modern evolution of this tradition, elevating the classic blend with the prized powder used in Japanese tea ceremonies.

This tea exemplifies the Japanese principle of mottainai - the concept of avoiding waste and finding value in all things. The use of roasted rice not only created an affordable tea but also developed into a beloved flavor profile that transcends its humble origins.

Produced in renowned tea regions like Kagoshima and Aichi, this blend represents the continuing evolution of Japanese tea craftsmanship, balancing tradition with innovation.
