I found another bag while cleaning up my desk and thought… matcha toasted rice… so, like genmaicha but with matcha instead of sencha? No, it uses sencha. So… poorly-labeled genmaicha, lol.
This has a very roasted toasty flavor, with hints of popcorn. The sencha flavor is either a bit weak, overpowered by the toasted rice, or both. I’d prefer a more balanced flavor, but if you like your genmaicha heavy on the toasted rice flavor, you’d probably like this one.

It’s probably genmaicha that is dusted in matcha.
Ooh, that would make sense. But it doesn’t list matcha in the ingredients.
What the…?!
If the ingredients just list “green tea” or “Japanese green tea” then the whole leaf and matcha could be grouped together.
