Es Koyama's Genmaicha (Hojicha & Genmai) is a product that combines the distinct flavors of Hojicha and Genmai. Hojicha is a type of Japanese green tea that is roasted over charcoal, resulting in a toasty, slightly caramelized flavor profile. Genmai, or roasted brown rice, adds a nutty and full-bodied dimension to the blend.
