Genmaicha is an organic Japanese-style green tea with toasted brown rice.
1 teaspoon tea per 10-12 oz of water.
For the best tasting tea, use spring water or filtered water. The quality of the water is as important as the tea itself. This tea is best steeped for 2-4 minutes at 185F.
Green teas respond best to less than boiling water.... water that is too hot can overwhelm the subtle flavors that an individual tea may exhibit if infused with cooler water.
