Marukyu Koyamaen Christmas Genmaicha Seiya no Yuki - Limited Edition Holiday Tea (30g)
Marukyu Koyamaen's festive genmaicha blends shade-grown kabusecha with roasted rice that pops into airy, crispy kernels during processing—the company playfully notes they look like snowflakes on a Christmas tree. This is a higher grade in their genmaicha line, which means you're getting that characteristic kabusecha sweetness and umami alongside the toasty, nutty notes from the puffed rice. The shading process (less than gyokuro, more than regular sencha) gives the tea a mellower, less astringent character while the popped rice keeps things approachable and comforting.
Available only through Christmas, this 30g tin arrives with a ribbon and makes a charming seasonal gift or just a cozy way to mark the holidays with something a bit more special than your everyday genmaicha.
