Description:
Popcorn Tea (Genmaicha) - Fab Japanese Treat. This might just be one of the most frequently asked questions by those entering the world of green teas – just what is popcorn tea (genmaicha)?! Well, the name may be a tiny bit misleading as it doesn’t actually contain any popcorn. Instead, the tea is blended with toasted rice – which, when popped, looks a little like the more familiar popcorn! Now, blending a tea with a beloved cereal favoured by three little elves might seem a little odd, but it’s actually one of the oldest green tea blends around. As with all great teas, the origins are shrouded in legend. The story of popcorn tea - or genmaicha green tea as it is properly known - is set long ago in the time of Samurai. A lowly peasant named Genmai was working in fields, when some Samurai came through the region. Rushing to serve them, Genmai accidentally dropped some toasted rice kernels into a pot of green tea he was preparing for one of these famed warriors. The outraged Samurai lopped off his head but, without another peasant to brew him up another one, drank the tea anyway. He loved it and was overcome with a little remorse for his actions, finally deciding to name the tea after the poor chap by way of apology - and so Genmai-cha was born (or, literally translated, Genmai’s tea). This traditional green tea has flourished from humble beginnings - Japanese peasants used to mix green tea with toasted rice to make it go further. It is now celebrated in its own right as Genmaicha tea, or Popcorn tea.
With the use of our 100% plant based tea temple – a clever triangular tea bag made entirely of cornstarch, you can guarantee that each brew is designed to maximise flavour - allowing for lots of leaves and plenty of room for them to infuse in your cup. After you’ve finished your brew, don’t forget to pop your tea temple in your local council food waste recycling - here, there is enough heat, water, oxygen, and micro-organisms to fully break down your tea temple into natural elements in 12 weeks. Even the packaging can be popped in your recycling too!
