Frequently Asked Questions

• Does Tea with Tae Genmaicha (Traditional Japanese Green Tea) Pouch contain caffeine?
  Yes. This green tea blend has medium caffeine levels—about one-third the amount in coffee. Two to three cups provide roughly the same caffeine as one cup of coffee.
• How do I brew this genmaicha?
  If using sachets, steep one pyramid sachet in 8 oz of hot water (160–180°F) for 2–3 minutes. For loose-leaf, use about one teaspoon per cup and adjust steeping time to taste.
• What's the difference between this blend and regular green tea?
  This genmaicha combines green tea with toasted brown rice, creating a nuttier, earthier profile than straight sencha. The roasted grain adds complexity and a slightly lower astringency.
