Description
A Mainer’s take on the Japanese tea style genmaicha. Its sweet-and-savory aroma and nutty taste is warm and comforting. Like your favorite flannel.
Genmaicha is a traditional Japanese blend of green tea and toasted rice. In this version the green tea is traded for nutrient-dense kelp, resulting in a naturally caffeine-free pick-me-up.
