GN | Genmaicha Looseleaf - Yame, Fukuoka

Origin: Yame
Producer: Hoshino Seicha
Style: Loose leaf green tea with roasted rice and matcha

This premium matcha-iri genmaicha blends carefully roasted Japanese brown rice with high-quality green tea leaves, finished with vibrant matcha from Yame—one of Japan’s most respected tea-growing regions.

The roasted rice brings a comforting, toasty aroma reminiscent of freshly popped grains, while the matcha adds depth, a gentle sweetness, and a vivid green liquor. The balance of nutty warmth and fresh vegetal notes creates a cup that is both soothing and refined.

Unlike everyday genmaicha, the use of higher-grade tea leaves and matcha gives this blend greater clarity, smoothness, and a lingering umami finish.
