WHY WE LOVE IT

Genmaicha Yamasaki is comforting without feeling heavy. The roasted rice brings warmth and depth to fresh Japanese green tea, creating a balanced cup that feels both grounding and refreshing.

The loose leaf format allows the sencha leaves and rice kernels to fully open while steeping, bringing forward the tea's layered vegetal character, toasted aroma, gentle sweetness, and smooth finish.

Designed for quiet mornings, afternoon resets, and anyone looking for a softer, more savory expression of green tea.
