And later in the evening, a cup of 煎茶.
With the help of my edict file:
煎茶 [せんちゃ] `/(n) green tea/tea leaves/` – *sencha* – lovely, the tea I love to drink several times a day
番茶 [ばんちゃ] `/(n) coarse tea/` – *bancha* – somehow it I like this one so much, I can not drink it every day, for that special mood alone at home late at night, when settling down with a book
玉露 [ぎょくろ] `/(n) refined green tea/` – *gyokuro asahi* – wonderful, but very expensive – I assume “asahi” is 旭 [あさひ] *(n) morning sun*
玄米茶 [げんまいちゃ] `/(n) tea (with roasted rice)/` – *genmaicha* – with roasted rice and popcorn, yumm!
焙じ茶 [ほうじちゃ] `/(n) roasted green tea/` – *hojicha* – this one is weird, I’m not yet enjoying it...
