Pros & Cons
Pros
For non-looseleaf tea, the flavor really is excellent. This is the first brand that captures both the grassy delicacy of the tea and the earthiness of the rice. This tea is delicious and beautifully packaged.
It smells like popcorn, is delicious cold-brewed or brewed normally, is comforting hot and refreshing served iced. The aroma is good and you know right away you wanna drink it. Has a robust flavor from the toasted rice.
The roasted brown rice has a smooth, nutty taste that compliments the tea. It’s totally green tea, but the added subtlety of the toasted rice gives it more depth.

It makes this product a bit more expensive than some competitors but i there is that old wisdom “in general you get what you pay for
This is the same genmaicha sold in japan by itoen

Packaging is not my main concern it is how the tea tastes although using biodegradable plastics in packaging wherever possible just makes sense from an ecological standpoint
