Watanabe Genmaicha, organic

Watanabe Genmaicha (organic) - Strong in character and harmonious

If you think Genmaicha is just a "rice green tea", this tea will prove you wrong. The Watanabe Genmaicha is an exceptional example of craftsmanship - lovingly composed and developed with a fine sense of balance and depth. For all those who don't just want to drink, but want to feel.

Clear in aroma, complex in taste: the typical nutty warmth of roasted rice unfolds as soon as it is poured, supported by the fine structure of high-quality green tea leaves. What is unusual is what you don't taste: no bitter notes, no spiciness - but a round, mild sweetness in the finish and a hint of umami that lingers gently.

Tea master Mankichi Watanabe - a pioneer of organic tea cultivation in Yakushima - deliberately goes his own way with this Genmaicha. Instead of simple bancha, he uses particularly fine, intensely green leaves from his own cultivation. He sources the unroasted organic rice from Kyushu - and then roasts it himself, directly on the island. As a result, this tea not only bears his signature, but also the entire soul of the garden.

For connoisseurs, it is a harmonious accompaniment to light cuisine or quiet moments in the afternoon. For new discoverers, it is an introduction to the exciting world of high-quality Genmaicha teas - without any compromise.
