Genmaicha is a blend of Japanese sencha and brown rice. The aroma from the brown rice mixes with the fresh taste and umami from sencha, making it a recommended drink for any occasion, both with food or when you want to take a break. The tea is brewed at approximately 80 degrees and the tea can be enjoyed hot or cold. From Horii Shichimeien you get a classic Japanese everyday tea in the luxury class.
Founded in 1879, Horii Shichimeien continues to cultivate the renowned 600-year-old Okunoyama Tea Garden, the sole remaining tea garden of Kyoto’s historic “seven beautiful gardens”.
