33 Tasting Notes
There’s something really comforting about Genmaicha. It’s one of those ones that I always want to have in stock, although I’m going to have to find a new one after this runs out since SpecialTeas went belly up. This was a good, reliable Genmaicha and forgiving when I felt like I got the water temp all wrong.

I made a ton of this yesterday and then iced it and added a little Christmas Berry honey from http://royalhawaiianhoney.com/ . It was pretty good but I didn’t get much of the strawberry flavor. Next time I’ll steep it hotter—I have a feeling that will help.
