Gen Mai Cha - Saphara from Celestial Seasonings

Janefan drank Gen Mai Cha - Saphara by Celestial Seasonings

this was my intro to genmaicha (green tea w toasted rice). I’ve not tried other more “authentic” versions, but I love the soothing toasted rice smell and taste, plus a bit of green tea bitterness. I tend to have this when I’ve “overindulged” in food or drink and want to feel better.

Adagio teas has a great one as well.

lowered my rating due to poor quality control. Brewed a cup where the toasted rice was singed/burnt. Didn’t realize it until I took a sip, but then I dumped it right out. Totally ruined the flavor.
