Organic Genmaicha Green Tea

Green Tea by Arbor Teas

Our organic Genmaicha (pronounced GEN-my-cha) offers a unique savory, toasted flavor and aroma with light body and limited bitterness. It consists of a mixture of organic green tea (“cha” in Japanese) and organic toasted brown rice (“genmai” in Japanese). This traditional green tea is very popular in Japan for everyday use. Unlike many “Japanese” green teas available in the United States, this organic Genmaicha is actually grown in Japan.

Sustainability is a cornerstone of Arbor Teas’ business philosophy. In addition to offering an exclusively organic selection of teas, they recently became the first tea company to offer their whole catalog in 100% backyard compostable packaging. They’ve also carbon-offset the entire supply chain of their products, from origin to the customer, making Arbor Teas the greenest option for Earth-conscious tea drinkers, and one of few tea companies recognized by Green America.

The toasted rice tastes a bit metallic to me and I don’t care for vegetal greens.
