What is genmaicha? Where is that from?


what led me to it was an article in The Telegraph on Saturday some of
which said when talking about green tea -

On its own, however, green tea can be an acquired taste. That's why
the Real Tea Company, a small, family-run firm based in Wales, has
produced a deliciously nutty Genmaicha (£3.95) tea - a traditional,
Japanese mix of green tea, rice kernels and popcorn.

Also worth trying, the cold and flu-relieving Chai (£5.95) is an
Indian spiced tea based on black Assam leaves, mixed with cinnamon,
nutmeg, cardamom and clove. The company's website includes a page
devoted to the health benefits of drinking tea
(www.therealteacompany.com, or tel: 01267 253792).



Also, I would like to try chai some day. How is it? I want to learn more of the
kaimosi, and Inverness OPI. Never heard of them

I bought the chai as my gentleman caller started drinking it once he
gave up dairy products ... I reckon this will be far nicer than the
teabags he uses ...

the kaimosi is from Kenya and the description says -

A deliciously rich, malty brew, best drunk with milk. Great for
breakfast or a pick-me-up!

and the Inverness (nothing to do with the one in Scotland!)

is a Ceylon black tea - A rich, malty flavour with a hint of oranges.
Smooooth!

I am a sucker for enticing descriptions ...

once my order arrives I will report back ...
