Obara Harukaen Taiko Genmaicha 150g | Established in 1875, Long-standing Tea Shop, Domestic Tea Leaves & Fragrant Roasted Rice, Rich Body and Traditional Aroma, Low Caffeine, Gift, Present, Japanese Tea

"Taiko Genmaicha (150g)" is a fine tea that embodies the history and tradition of Obara Shunkoen, a long-established tea shop founded in the 8th year of the Meiji era.

This exquisite Japanese tea is a perfect blend of carefully selected high-quality domestic tea leaves (green tea) and aromatic domestic roasted rice (genmai) that has been slowly and meticulously fire-roasted. The moment you pour hot water, the room fills with the rich, toasted aroma of the roasted rice, which harmonizes beautifully with the refined umami and refreshing aftertaste of the green tea.

By blending roasted rice with tea leaves, the caffeine content is reduced, creating a mild flavor with little bitterness or astringency that can be safely enjoyed by the whole family, from children to the elderly. When brewed in your favorite teapot, it yields a beautiful golden infusion that releases a soothing, toasted fragrance.

It can be enjoyed hot, or cold-brewed to further highlight the toasted sweetness of the roasted rice, making it a delicious choice for any season. The 150g size is perfect for your daily tea routine, mealtimes at home, a relaxing break before bed, or as a refreshing pick-me-up at the office.

The elegant special packaging (150g) protects the tea's delicate quality from light and moisture, preserving its fresh, toasted aroma and flavor for a long time. It is a masterpiece that is sure to be appreciated—not only for your own luxurious daily tea time, but also as a special gift, souvenir, or present for tea lovers.
