The smell is awesome and I find that if I take an extra long steeping (a full 3 minutes) that it brings that awesome roasted rice flavor into the tea. This is becoming my go to Genmaicha. That or Den’s super green.

I find that sometimes I even need to steep for 4 minutes to really get the flavor out.
i wonder if that’ll work as well on a second steeping? well, i’ll report back in a few…
I do two pulls at 4 minutes each and it works fine. But two seems to be the maximum. The third pool is typically tasteless. I can actually see the rice turning white by that point.
