had this at my aunt’s house this afternoon and it was ok…
i liked that the flavor imparted by the toasted rice but as with the grocery store genmaicha i have at home, the green tea flavor was faint (i really am a black tea lover).
wasnt able to gauge the temp when i poured so it may have been hotter than it should’ve and maybe i didnt time it well enough. but i kinda liked the overall taste of the one at home better. i will try to steep this better on my next visit :)
Chai was my first love, and later fell hard for Earl Grey. Will always have a soft spot in my heart for tisanes. It has been a while since I last joined and now I am more into matcha but still into other teas most definitely.
Swapped some teas here before with the LIT brand and had to change name to be registered and now selling loose leaf tea in the Philippines as Khesed :)

I was pleasently surprised by the 1 Genmaicha tea I had…not something I could have alot but not bad for once in a great while. Generally, I suspect you and I have similiar tastes in tea:)
It is so cool to find people who like the same things you do _
