Benefits of Matcha Toasted Rice

Description of Image Green tea is rich in catechins, antioxidants that interact with and neutralize free radicals, thus preventing them from causing damage to tissues and cells in the body.

Green tea also contains the amino acid L-Theanine, associated with several health benefits, including improvements in mood, cognition and a reduction of stress and anxiety-like symptoms.

Fuller Leaf Teas

Our fuller leaf teas steep slowly and evenly, delivering a smooth, rich flavor. Why do grades of tea matter? The larger the leaf, the greater its surface area for steeping and the more complex the infusion. Numi uses only hand-plucked, fuller leaf quality tea for a pure taste that balances depth and nuance. Many bagged teas are machine-picked and use low-quality fannings and dust. Smaller grades release tannins more quickly, leading to a dark, bitter-tasting cup. When you drink our tea, you’ll immediately taste the difference.

Direct Sourcing

The organic sencha and matcha teas in this blend come from a single Verified Fair Labor™ farm in Zhejiang, China, where investments in worker health and safety ensure fair working conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Our teabags are compostable and made from manila hemp cellulose (plant fiber). They are Non-GMO Verified, unbleached, and the tag is made from 100% recycled materials and soy-based inks. Our tea strings are made from cotton.

  • Numi’s tea bag wrappers* are commercially compostable (ASTM D6868 compliant/3rd party certification in progress). They are made from sustainably grown FSC® certified paper, and lined with sugarcane-based Non-GMO PLA and metalized eucalyptus layers to ensure freshness. Our plant-based wrappers have been tested to make sure they completely disintegrate and cause no eco-toxicity when they break down. You can compost the wrappers with any municipal or industrial service that accepts green waste (throw them in your green can). Unfortunately, due to the compostable freshness lining, the wrappers are not recyclable.

    *with the exception of some Gunpowder Green and Jasmine Green

  • We are asked all the time how many milligrams of caffeine are in a particular cup of tea, and the honest answer is: we don’t know for sure! The environment each year, location of the bush, processing style and method of steeping all has an effect on the amount in your cup. This is why we only provide a range. We use the lower, medium, and high caffeine labeling on our packages based on past tests and the proportion of tea to ingredients in each blend. A 6 to 8 ounce cup of tea generally contains between 15 and 70 milligrams of caffeine. Remember, 8 ounces of brewed coffee has a range of 95-200mg, so you can be sure that your cup of tea will always be lower in caffeine.

  • Climate Neutral Certified is the leading independent climate action label. It gives you a way to find companies that are actively working toward a net-zero future. Demand action from all companies, and help us make carbon accountability the new normal.

    Carbon neutrality means achieving a balance between emitting carbon and absorbing carbon from the atmosphere.

    Achieving carbon neutrality, or climate neutrality - which counts other greenhouse gases in addition to carbon dioxide - can help accelerate the world on its path to net-zero by 2050. That's the target year for getting all of human civilization to a point where our emissions have been reduced below the amount that is absorbed through natural and man-made carbon sinks.

    People have been talking about climate change for decades and doing very little about it, so the issue is more important than ever. All of the recent science suggests that we're approaching a point of no return on climate change - and political, economic, and social systems are not responding quickly enough. Humanity's decisions in the next 10 years will determine, more than ever before, how our climate changes and the extent of its impacts over the next century and beyond.

  • Although our brand has a new look, our ingredients, blends and recipes have not changed.

    This is a bit of a different tea. Initially I wasn’t sure but I brew a cup every other day.

    This is the best matcha-genmaicha

    This is the best matcha-genmaicha blend i’ve ever had. They stopped carrying it at my local store so i was trying the other versions they had, and the other green teas generally, and none of them came close. After trying a very “fancy” version that was way more expensive and still not as good, i got fed up and decided to look for it online. Stoked to be able to order it here — and in bulk! — so i’m paying less than i was at the store when they still carried it, and i won’t run out any time soon.

    Have loved this for years

    The combination of toasted rice and green tea was always something I loved in the few Japanese restaurants I knew that served it. Finding it in Numi’s offerings some years ago was a very happy occurrence! Good hot, good cold, medium caffeine so I can have it a little later in the day than my beloved Chinese Breakfast—I love this tea and drink it just about every day.
