Ryokucha Genmaicha from Samovar

Ryokucha Genmaicha

Green Tea by Samovar

Forward notes of toasted brown rice crisps met with sweet green flavors that suggest grass and kelp. This tea is roasty delicious, full bodied, milky, and slightly malty.

Def Loved this tea. The toasted brown rice just brings out a nice aroma and taste. This is one that is in my top 10 right now.

So I bought Kevin rose’s ‘tea starter kit’ from samovar lfe teas in San Francisco. It includes a green, a black and a pu’er. The green is an interesting Japanese selection that has puffed brown rice in it. Endlessly complex, I’ve never had anthing like it.
