David Rio Genmaicha Full Leaf Green Tea
A Japanese green tea with popped rice kernels. Fire toasted rice was once added to teas in Japan to extend the available supply of tea. The toasty sweet flavor proved popular, and genmaicha became a mainstay in Japanese tea culture. The David Rio version caries on the tradition, blending fine Japanese sencha, (green tea leaves) with popped rice. The pale-colored tea has a surprisingly full, nutty flavor-an ideal accompaniment to Asian meals or a satisfying "anytime" cup.
