Imperial Gyokuro Genmaicha – Luxury Gyokuro with Toasted Brown RiceOur Imperial Gyokuro Genmaicha pairs exceptional, top-tier premium Japanese green tea with toasted brown rice, resulting in a highly aromatic, medium-bodied tea — an elevated take on a classic Japanese favorite. High-quality genmaicha is always made with toasted brown rice, which delivers a sweeter, richer flavor than cheaper versions made with toasted white rice. This aromatic blend brings together the refreshing lightness and sweetness of fine green tea with the distinctive, comforting taste of roasted rice. Using premium green tea as the base gives this genmaicha extra depth and a smooth, luxurious character. Tasting Notes
Why You'll Love ItGenmaicha has less caffeine and tastes less astringent than many other Japanese teas, making it a gentle, soothing cup for any time of day. This imperial version adds richness and refinement, making it a special treat for genmaicha lovers.
How to EnjoyEnjoy it with meals — it's wonderful alongside sushi, ramen, tempura and rice dishes — or as a cozy afternoon cup. Re-steep for a second infusion, or serve it chilled for a toasty iced tea. We hope you love our luxury Imperial Gyokuro Genmaicha as much as we do! It's a wonderful gift for Japanese tea lovers and a perfect everyday comfort tea for the whole family. |

A little steeping tipLet just-boiled water cool for a minute or two — water that’s too hot can turn delicate leaves bitter. Good leaves give a lovely second cup, too.
A fresh way to enjoy itSweeten while the tea is still hot so it dissolves. For a smoother, mellower glass, try cold brew: leaves in cold water in the fridge for 6–8 hours.
