Obubu’s Genmaicha is a popular form of Japanese green tea (or sencha tea) naturally flavored with toasted sweet rice giving the tea a buttery flavor popular with tea drinkers in America and Europe. The tea is a common drink in Japan where it is served both hot and on ice—especially during the sweltering summer months. Obubu’s Genmaicha is made by toasting sweet rice and mixing it with Obubu’s Sencha of the Autumn Moon, a sencha tea harvested in late September as Japan celebrates the season with moon viewing parties.
