Already had two pots of black tea so I decided to go with something lighter. Yummy, nutty flavor as always.

Just finished a pot of this mixed with matcha. Superyummy as always. The genmaicha+matcha blend is something I usually throw in my thermos in the morning to wake me up during class.

My roomie won’t let me buy more genmaicha until we finish the two tins of genmai cha that are still in the tea cupboard. Which is fine because genmai cha is one of my faves. (I’m drinking the loose leaves kind from yamamotoyama. I do occasionally get out a yamamotoyama tea bag from time to time if I’m in a hurry.)

Genmai-cha is my second favorite type of tea. (The first being jasmine tea). I usually drink it loose leaves but I ran out. Yamamotoyama tea bags are always delicious.

drank Sencha by Yamamotoyama

Got 2 infusions 1 1/2 and 2 minutes at about 180. Sort of bitter, but not overwhelmingly so. Very vegetal and slightly grassy. Nice sencha for the price.

Nice and toasty. Did 2 steeps for 1:30 and 2:00, 1 tsp for a 7oz cup at 180 degrees.

Steeped 180 F water for 2 and a half minutes. This is a standard loose leaf Hoji-cha, maybe a little bland. Still enjoyable.

Not a bad brew. This has a nice aftertaste too – presumably from the toasted Brown Rice.

Had a rather greasy lunch, typical of local hawker foods. With the heat and the grease, i was feeling really lethargic. Popped one of these little fellas in a mug of hot water and felt much better.

Made a quick green tea with this. Got it at the local japanese supermarket. It’s not pricey, not fussy and surprisingly, quite nice. But don’t allow the tea bag to sit in your mug too long or the nice greenish hue will soon turn a dull yellow, meaning it’s been there too long.
