Okay I am not usually a tea person but these blends are actually insane. The green tea one I had this morning took me straight back to a tiny tea house in Kyoto. Smooth, grassy, no bitterness at all. I finished my cup wishing I had made two.

I was a bit worried it would taste like medicine but honestly it does not at all. Just warm, nutty, a bit toasty. Reminds me of a roasted barley drink my grandma used to make. Love it.

The flavour is so unique. Soft floral notes, a little bit earthy, not sweet but somehow still comforting. I have been drinking it every night with my book and it has become my favourite little ritual. Hard to describe but you just have to try it.

I was drinking way too much coffee and feeling wrecked by 3pm every day. Switched my afternoon cup to this and I genuinely feel different. More focused, no jitters, and I am not reaching for snacks anymore. Did not expect a tea to do this.

I have had bad sleep for years. Tried everything. Magnesium, melatonin, no phone before bed, all of it. Started drinking this about an hour before bed and I am finally sleeping through the night. I wake up actually rested for once. Not saying it is magic but something is working.

Bought it for the taste honestly, the benefits were a bonus. But about three weeks in my partner said I seemed calmer and my skin was clearer. Now I am a believer. Something about having a warm ritual twice a day has changed how I feel.

You can tell straight away it is not supermarket tea. The smell when you open the pouch is incredible. Fresh, vibrant, actual leaves you can see. I have been buying organic tea for years and this is the best I have tried.

I lived in Japan for five years and got really into tea there. When I moved back home I could not find anything close to the quality I had gotten used to. This is the first brand outside Japan that has genuinely impressed me. The sourcing makes all the difference.

The packaging alone made me happy. Beautiful pouch, a handwritten thank you note, the little gold infuser. It felt like I was unwrapping a gift. And then the tea itself is just as lovely. Worth every cent and I have already reordered.

Take the Tea QuizNutty, toasted, and grounding. The roasted brown rice gives it a warm popcorn-like character, the rose petals add a soft floral note, and lemon balm a light lemony finish.
Around 25 mg per cup, about a quarter of a standard coffee. Genmaicha is half green tea and half toasted rice, so the caffeine is gentler than straight sencha. Good for steady comfort without overstimulation.
Anytime during the day. Genmaicha Rise is the comfort blend, the cup you reach for between meetings or with a slow lunch when you want grounded warmth.

Rose petals bring a soft floral sweetness that rounds out the toasted rice, and lemon balm adds a light, lemony herbal note. They keep Genmaicha Rise gentle and comforting without masking the nutty character of the tea.
Genmaicha is a Japanese tradition that goes back centuries. The toasted rice was originally added to stretch a small amount of green tea further, but the nutty toasted character became loved on its own. It is one of the most comforting cups in the Japanese tea family.
