10/7/12 – Bought today at local Asian Supermarket – The one that sell frog legs, for 2.59. I peeked inside and they are foil wrapped hermetically sealed, gonna bring a few with me on the road this week.
10/8/12 – Wow! I really like this! Tastes like matcha flavored rice crispies! Yum!

12/6/2012 I boosted this tea rating. Every time I drink it I crave sushi! Yum. I drink it in the evening. I love it – and there’s been a sale at the Midtown Manhattan Japanese store – a box for only 1.68. Wow!

You should have bought the frog legs too and cooked them up to have on the side. ;)

It tastes good, not amazing. I finished the cup, I was really hoping it would taste much better than this, but I’ve had better genmaicha before.. It’s still drinkable though, I prefer loose. I’ve got to say that though.

Reminds me of the tea they stocked in my room at the ryokan I stayed in Kyoto – might even be the same brand! Great for all occasions and moods.

Not the best genmai-cha ever in the world, but quite a respectable standard. This variety combines broken green tea leaves with matcha and toasted rice in aluminum-lined bags. I’m a big fan of that rice flavor!

This is my new favorite green tea. It’s vegetal, savory, a bit sweet, and super comforting. I drink this throughout the day, and it doesn’t keep me awake if I have a cup at night. I steep it for two minutes.

Flavors: Sweet, Vegetal

oh yes, this is a good travel mug tea. make sure you get a stainless-lined travel mug, i notice too much plastic in the plastic ones. at ANY rate, as someone else noted, not my favorite genmai cha in the world, but quite nice for an afternoon spent on wifi at the rec center, waiting while the kiddo was doing his lego club thing. quite nice. i will be restocking once i’m done with this box.
