Obara Harukaen Domestic Roasted Brown Rice 150g | Established 1875 Traditional Tea Merchant, Artisan Direct-Fire Roasted, DIY Genmaicha Topping, For Baking, Crunchy Texture, Low Caffeine, Gift, Japanese Tea

This is "Domestic Roasted Brown Rice (150g)," made using carefully selected domestic rice by "Obara Harukaen," a long-established tea shop founded in 1875, and roasted slowly over an open flame by skilled craftsmen to achieve a savory aroma.

By simply adding your preferred amount to your favorite sencha, gyokuro, or hojicha, you can enjoy original, fresh-brewed, aromatic genmaicha at home anytime. The savory, rich aroma unique to open-flame roasting and the light, crunchy texture stand out, further enhancing the flavor of your tea.

Beyond being a tea topping, it is versatile enough to be used on ochazuke, as a sprinkle for soups, a topping for ice cream or yogurt, or as an ingredient in Japanese and Western sweets. If you steep the roasted brown rice alone in hot water, you can enjoy it as a caffeine-free, gentle, and savory "brown rice broth (genmaicha)." It can be enjoyed with peace of mind by everyone in the family, from children to the elderly.

The elegant dedicated packaging (150g) protects the flavor from light and moisture, keeping the freshly made savory aroma and crispy texture for a long time. The 150g size is generous enough for home use, making it perfect for creative tea times, as an accent in cooking and baking, or as a thoughtful small gift or souvenir for those who love Japanese cuisine.
