and Sencha are sorted into leaf, stem and powder
during processing. For Genmaicha,
green tea that consists mostly of the stem (Karigane) is blended with popped whole-rice
(Genmai). The
taste of the refreshing green tea and the full-bodied aroma of the whole-rice
combine exquisitely. Its mild relaxing fragrance makes it very popular as a daily
drink.
The fragrance and flavor of the unpolished rice helps at times
when one feels tired and empty. Whether at work, university or during your private
study time at home Genmaicha relaxes and strengthens you.
Not only are vitamin
B and E abundant in unpolished rice, but green tea also contains vitamin C and
plenty of minerals. These nutritional benefits are another reason why this tea
is so popular. |
