This genmaicha combines roasted rice with a tea made from two cultivars, meaning two varieties of tea plant: Yabukita and Okumidori.
Yabukita is the most widely grown variety of tea plant in Japan, used to produce many teas with different characters.
Okumidori is a late-budding cultivar whose profile is often described as sweet and rounded.
Together in this genmaicha, they complement the inviting, toasted notes of roasted rice.
