Genmaicha is green tea with toasted brown rice. It is remarkably nutty and flavorful. It took me off guard at first, a flavor of tea that I did not know how to describe. With its earthy grain flavor I soon became enthralled. I inquired about what was in the tea and was quite surprised when it was disclosed that it was brown rice. The nutty grainy flavor makes it almost feel like a comfort food to me. I picked up some Genmaicha today in Chinatown at Ten Ren's.
