This unique blend offers a comforting profile with the warm, savory notes of toasted brown rice, beautifully complemented by the fresh, vibrant undertones of green tea. Expect a smooth, silky mouthfee. It leans nutty, grassy and oceanic.
How should I brew Uji Genmaimatcha?
Water around 70–80 °C (158–176 °F). In a mug, steep 2–3 min. For gongfu, use 3–5 g per 100 ml, 15–30 s steeps. You'll get to see how the flavor changes across multiple rounds. The biggest mistake with green tea is using boiling water. Keep it well below that and you won't get bitterness.

Grown in Uji, Kyoto, Japan from the Blend cultivar. This batch is from the Spring 2025 harvest. The leaves got a light roast after picking.
How much does Uji Genmaimatcha cost?
Starts at $20.00 from Kettl, or about $0.15/g. A 100g package gets you around 17 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $0.90 per session. Explore more green teas on Teadar.
