I had this to-go with the straight tea promo (though I’d argue against it being a straight tea, really!). I don’t think you can go too far wrong with genmaicha, which is why I chose it. It hit the spot, but didn’t taste quite fresh enough. I think I’m spoiled with the Den’s genmaichas which have a really great contrast between sweet sencha and toasty rice. Still, nice, soothing, and smooth.
I love genmaicha…it’s a fave of mine…but yeah, I was suprised to see it as a straight tea.
Mmm the roasted flavour wins me over
Same here. Love the roasted nutty and earthy flavour.
