Picked this up recently while I was debating on purchasing a happy bag. I reluctantly pulled myself away from them and purchased some teas I knew I would enjoy. I was very pleased with my happy bag last year, but there was just too much tea for me.
I love genmaicha teas and I had the matcha genmaicha in my happy bag last year so I chose to try this. You can definitely pick up the toasted flavor and a hint of the soybean. This is a tricky tea to brew though, Lupicia recommends brewing it at boiling for 30 seconds. This tea can easily be over steeped so you need to make sure you have a timer or that you’re aware of how long the tea is brewing.
