This is my first time trying genmaicha, and I do not think it was a bad introduction. This is also my first time trying anything from 52 Teas, I plan to try more of 52 Teas in the future.
In the first steeping the chocolate was very faint, barely there (Maybe my sample got exposed to too much light/air?) but it was still a really good cup of tea. So much like drinking slightly sweet popcorn.
Strangely the second steeping had a more chocolatey taste. Maybe I should have just steeped it longer the first time?
Makes me wish I had gotten around to watching Firefly so I know what this Browncoat is about.

If you have netflix, you can stream it! “Keep flying and stay shiny!”
Definitely take the time to watch it sometime. It’s amazing.
@Serenity – Can’t stop the signal! ;)
I don’t have Netflix, I’ll see if it’s on Hulu and if not there I’m sure my library has the DVDs.
