Classic Japanese green tea, blended with toasted, popped rice. Originally created to stretch short supplies of tea, now enjoyed by tea lovers here and abroad. Warm and nutty with a lovely savory quality. A hearty cup of tea and truly satisfying. A great green tea for someone seeking a substantial, but less astringent, flavor from their cup.

This tea is pretty much Adagio's Genmai Cha in bagged form--beautiful pyramid bags in this case. I can attest that genmai cha is a delicious tea that seems pretty close to its tradtitional roots. It's one of my all time favorites, though I do prefer it loose.

I have bought this in both the loose-leaf and the bagged form, and I love both. Adagio's Genmai Cha is just delicious. I used to bring little packets of this to my former job, and when I needed a "time out" from the stress, I would sip it, smile, and chill. There is something that is just so comforting about the toasty rice and tiny popcorns mixed with the savory green tea. :D
