Genmaicha has been my favorite tea ever since my dad brought a canister home for me from a trip to Japan in the early 2000's. I've bought or ordered it from a number of different tea companies over the years, and this is one of the best I've tried. The flavor is really exception - delicate and balanced, nutty and buttery and cozy. It's been the perfect WFH beverage on this overcast and slightly chilly spring morning.
