Tamaryoku Genmaicha

The Green Tea Shop

Regular price $13.00

This is not your ordinary genmaicha! 

Our genmaicha is blended with roasted brown rice and first-flush tamaryokucha, adding a fun Kyushu twist. It's light and smooth, yet rich in umami. The refreshing cereal notes make this a satisfying cup that pairs great with meals.

With a lower caffeine content, it's a great nightcap as well.
