Ujinotsuyu UJI no TSUYU Genmaicha Japanese Tea with Roasted Rice 20 x 2g
Genmaicha (玄米茶, "brown rice tea") is the Japanese name for green tea combined with roasted brown rice. It is sometimes referred to colloquially as "popcorn tea" because a few grains of the rice pop during the roasting process and resemble popcorn. This type of tea was originally drunk by poor Japanese, as the rice served as a filler and reduced the price of the tea; which is why it is also known as the "people's tea." It was also used by those persons fasting for religious purposes or who found themselves to be between meals for long periods of time. Today it is consumed by all segments of society.

Ujinotsuyu UJI no TSUYU Japanese Tea With Roasted Rice (Genmaicha) 400g
Genmaicha brown rice tea is green tea mixed with puffs of toasted brown rice, so it has the grassy flavour of green tea, combined with the nutty aroma of roasted rice. Genmaicha tea is a combination of Japanese green tea and toasted brown rice. Brown rice was originally added to tea as a filler for the poorer members of society, but has now become a popular tea in its own right due to the mild flavour combination of light, grassy green tea and roasted brown rice. Low in caffeine and high in flavonoids, genmaicha is a healthier alternative to coffee and other teas. How To UseLoose leaf tea tends to have a fresher, more authentic taste than bagged varieties.• Add a pinch of green tea directly to a cup or to a tea strainer in a tea pot.• Use approximately 80°C water to brew the tea.• Allow the tea to infuse for one minute, then enjoy.
