Genmaicha Tea is a blend of traditionally cured organic green tea leaves and roasted organic brown rice. ‘Genmai’ is the Japanese word for brown rice and ‘cha’ means tea, hence the name. Prized, young, tender spring leaves near the top of the bush are picked and immediately steamed, rubbed while warm, then rubbed again after they are cool and dry. Rubbing the leaves preserves beneficial antioxidants as well as the green color of the leaves that release their unique flavor and delightful aroma when steeped. The brown rice is slowly roasted until golden and coarsely ground. The dried tea leaves (51%) and brown rice (49%) are then mixed together. This unique blend produces a tea that contains 80 percent less caffeine than regular brewed coffee. Genmaicha can be enjoyed in any season, hot or chilled but is especially good as iced tea in hot weather months. Just add ice and a slice of lemon, lime, or orange.

The flavor of tea reflects the soil it is grown in, the season picked, and the curing process. Our tea is tended adhering to strict organic practices. The growers are dedicated to organic farming and stewardship of the soil. This dedication is also reflected in the use of skillfully executed traditional handling methods that preserve and enhance the tea’s flavor and nutrients resulting in exceedingly fine organic tea.

Every part of a tea bag reflects the highest care, from its manilla oxygen washed hemp fibers, to its crimped seal and 100 percent cotton string. No whiteners or plastics used.

All true teas stem from the plant Camellia sinensis, an attractive perennial shrub about five feet tall with gentle rounded leaves and tender twigs. Tea become green, black or other varieties depending on the time of harvest, and the way they are cured and handled. Tea begins to oxidize as soon as it is picked. Chinese oolong and English black teas are allowed to oxidize as they dry, but with our Japanese teas this process is carefully controlled and the tea remains green. Our Genmaicha Green Tea contains 67 percent less caffeine than regular brewed coffee.

Organic Traditional Teas contain no added flavorings or dyes and are not processed using any additives whatsoever.
