Hempmaicha is a Handmade Tea variation on the popular Genmaicha-style tea. Hempmaicha begins with a smooth Chinese green tea base. The blend then introduces roasted hemp seeds for a nutty, sweet flavor. Lastly for Genmaicha authenticity natural popcorn (no oil, no butter, and no salt) is added to the blend.

Backlog:
I bought this in the “mini size” a couple of months ago. The hemp lured me in. I am a big fan of hemp.
Rather than using a Japanese green tea as you would find in most Genmaicha blends, a Chinese green is used here. It looks a lot like a Chinese eyebrow (Chun Mee) but I could be wrong.
This is a bit nuttier than a typical Genmaicha tastes to me, it has a sweet, toasty flavor that I enjoyed. A nice, autumnal taste. Here’s my full-length review: http://sororiteasisters.com/2014/09/06/hempmaicha-green-tea-blend-from-handmade-tea/
Method: 1.5 tsp @ 180 degrees, 8 oz, french press
Dry leaf aroma: Roasty!
Brewing Aroma: Roasty!
Flavor: the tea is milder than most traditional genmaichas. I really like it. It does taste a little hempy, but mostly the flavors taste nicely blended. Thumbs up!
