MATCHA IRI GENMAICHA 抹茶玄米茶

$16.00

Our Matcha Iri Genmaicha blends the vibrant, umami-rich flavors of premium green tea with the hearty, toasty sweetness of roasted rice. The tea comes from the renowned Yame region of Japan, where the high-quality leaves are cultivated with care. The matcha adds an extra layer of creamy richness, blending seamlessly with the roasted brown rice to offer a balanced flavor that’s both soothing and energizing.

Translated to "brown rice tea," Genmaicha is often affectionately called "popcorn tea" for its distinct nutty aroma, evoking the warm, comforting scent of freshly popped rice. Unlike traditional Genmaicha, which typically features a 1:1 ratio of tea to rice, our Matcha Iri Genmaicha uses a higher proportion of tea to rice, delivering a more robust flavor while maintaining the perfect harmony between the toasted rice and the rich, smooth matcha.

Crafted with the same meticulous care as our other offerings, this blend is a nod to both tradition and innovation, where the earthy, vegetal notes of matcha are beautifully balanced by the aromatic rice, creating a cup that's as delightful as it is unique.

REGION:
YAME, JAPAN

Yame, located in Fukuoka Prefecture on Kyushu Island, is renowned for producing some of Japan’s finest teas, particularly Gyokuro and high-quality Sencha. The region benefits from a temperate climate with warm summers, mild winters, and abundant rainfall, creating ideal conditions for tea cultivation.

The surrounding mountains provide natural shade and protect the tea fields from strong winds, while the region’s misty mornings enhance the development of rich umami flavors in the tea leaves. Yame’s fertile, well-draining soils further contribute to the production of tea with deep, complex flavors and a smooth finish, making it a prized area for Japanese tea.
