These measurements, temperatures, and steep times are suggestions only. Only by playing around with these will you find what you truly enjoy. For example, I tend to prefer steeping teas at about 10 degrees lower than the typical steep temperature.
If a tea is too strong, try using less tea.
If it is too weak, use more tea.
If your tea is too bitter, lower the steep temperature.

Product description
"Genmaicha" means natural rice. This specialty is made from Bancha tea, to which approximately 50 % roasted or popped rice grains have been added. The incomparable taste is characterized by the mildness of the Bancha tea and is ideally complemented by the pleasant, slightly sweet and nutty caramel note. Thanks to the low caffeine content and the mildness, this tea can be consumed all day long. This is a perfect tea for green tea beginners. The Japanese prefer this tea for the afternoon hours.
