Eden Genmaicha Organic Green Tea, Sencha Green Tea with Roasted Organic Brown Rice, Japanese, 16 Unbleached Manila Tea Bags/Box (3-Pack)
Brand: Eden
Eden Genmaicha Organic Green Tea is highest grade, hand-picked spring leaf sencha with roasted organic short grain brown rice. Genmai is brown rice, cha is tea. A rich, soothing, appealing tea. Grown on centuries-old plantations near Uji, Japan by Nagata Co-op artisans using traditional, strict organic growing and handling methods. Uji is famous for mineral rich, slightly acidic soil that tea plants thrive on. Respectfully referred to as Uji-cha. Uji River morning mist moistens and shields the leaves from morning sun. Superb Genmaicha Tea with rich, smooth, invigorating taste. The slowly roasted short grain brown rice is authentic-organic. It enrichens and smooths the green tea’s taste. Tea bushes are shaded with netting or traditional bamboo screens to protect new leaf growth from harsh sun. Most commonly, the first spring leaves are used to make Gyokuro and ceremonial grade Matcha, two of Japan’s most highly honored teas, but at the Nagata Co-op these prized first leaves are also used to make Eden Genmaicha Green Tea. The Nagata Co-op maintains rich soil, replenished with vegetal compost; never with animal waste, chemical fertilizers, herbicides, fungicides, or pesticides. Forty-five years ago, they completely rejected chemical agriculture.
