I THINK this is the last I have to review from my summer order. Despite being a few months old, I forgot that THIS is the color of what matcha SHOULD look like! It’s such a bright green! I really needed a matcha genmaicha in my tea collection again, as I really love the combination of the two — better together for a super power amount of flavor in one mug. The toasty goodness of genmaicha wisping around with matcha in the mug. So good. I used a teaspoon and a half for a big mug, which might have even been a little too much. Maybe one teaspoon is enough. I’m glad I have this in the cupboard and was hoping Tealyra’s version would be good — it is!
Steep #1 // 1 1/2 teaspoons for a full mug // 33 minutes after boiling // 2 minute steep
Steep #2 // 30 minutes after boiling // 2 min steep
