I absolutely love how nami genmaicha tastes!!! I’m a fan of nutty and toasty flavors hands down!!!! Genmaicha has a good nutty flavor from the roasted brown rice and it doesn’t overpower the green tea aspect, there’s a good balance that makes you want to hold onto your mug. I’ve had brewed genmaicha a few times before and I’d say that tastes more leafy, leaning towards the vegetal green tea with a light roasted aroma. HOWEVER, nami genmaicha is lowkey a game changer for me because of how interestingly addictive the taste is: nutty, cereal, kettle corn. When I say nutty, it’s not like nami hojicha nutty because that one is more chocolatey and rich. But it’s nutty and almost sweet like a nutritious grain drink flavor (it actually reminds me a lot of the Korean drink misugaru). I have a warm mug every morning, and it’s amazing for me because the caffeine content isn’t so high. I also LOVEEEE the flavor when it’s iced! In short, I’m in love. Thank you Ashley and nami matcha team ♡

I loved this product only after I finally figured out my favorite way to prepare it. Do not use too much in one cup or the flavor is really overwhelning. Just a few grams in a cup, whisked and steamed with milk, honey, and vanilla, still served warm as a latte. YUM. Otherwise, too little milk and too much tea tastes line burnt popcorn, prepare this way to fully enjoy the earthy and nutty flavor!
