Product Description

Genmaicha is a wonderful tea that is a great discovery if you haven’t tried it before. It combines the leaves of Japanese Sencha with toasted brown rice to give a delightful umami flavour combined with a nuttiness and toastiness from the rice.

We however have put our own take on this tea, which purists might frown on, but we love the result. We just wanted to be a little adventurous without spoiling what Genmaicha is about.

We have used a combination of Japanese sencha and Chinese green tea, together with toasted rice, calendula and sunflower petals and just a tiny hint of liquorice. This just brings out a subtle sweetness but does not overpower the essence of this well-loved tea. It smells divine, it looks gorgeous and it is very pleasing to drink. We recommend it for all green tea lovers, especially those who like something a little different but if you are an “entry-level” green tea drinker you might find it a good one to start with. This tea does not contain calories despite the fact it contains rice.

  • Environmentally sustainable

  • Our blenders have visited over 130 tea estates worldwide to ensure we are using suppliers that have a proven track record of quality and systems management.
  • A major part of this is employee welfare. It also gives us control over the quality of the finished product.
  • Our blenders are certified by SALSA (Safe And Local Supplier Approved) ensuring we can apply strict employee welfare standards to our own supply chain.
  • Our teas come from estates that strive to produce the very best quality and as such will get a proper premium for their teas – a portion of which is reinvested in the health and welfare of their employees.
  • Every ingredient can be traced back to source.
  • All of our suppliers are screened, with thorough documenting of their processes, and audited where deemed necessary.
  • The majority of our suppliers hold accreditation from the British Retail Consortium (BRC) or the International Organisation for Standardization (ISO) and many of the large tea growers are also members of Fairtrade, Rainforest Alliance or involved in the Ethical Tea Partnership.
  • Our teas and infusions are blended and packed in – and delivered from – offices and a factory in the UK.
  • Both buildings were built to the highest possible energy efficiency standards. The office is built using locally sourced oak beams and handmade tiles.
  • Both also use a biomass boiler for heating, water and welfare facilities, with the boiler being fuelled by sustainable wood from the surrounding estate.
  • We do not use plastic and our packaging is 100% recyclable. We work with our stockists to re-use wholesale packaging as many times as possible.
