Tea Story

Genmaicha is a humble ode to the simplicity and depth of traditional Japanese tea culture.

The dedicated tea artisans from Shogyokuen Tea Farm have devoted their life to the pursuit of crafting teas that resonate with the natural world. This Genmaicha is a perfect example of such dedication. Sourced from organic tea gardens where the leaves grow in perfect sync with the environment, this tea is a blend of deep-steamed organic sencha, known as fukamushicha, and toasted organic rice. The result is a tea that is both comforting and complex, with a flavor that reflects the balance of the elements.

The story this Genmaicha begins with the deep-steamed sencha, a process that brings out the richness and sweetness of the tea leaves, giving them a vibrant green hue and a robust flavor profile. The organic rice, carefully selected and toasted to perfection, adds a warm, nutty aroma that is instantly recognizable. When combined, these two ingredients create a cup of tea that is as soothing as it is invigorating.
