You\u2019re not dreaming. Indeed, daylight changes slow down during the solstices; this year\u2019s summer solstice, the longest day of the year, was June 21. But as the march of days gathers around an equinox, then changes speed up. And today, we\u2019re just a dozen days from the fall equinox, on September 22. We\u2019re losing as much as three minutes of daylight a day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Colorado at least, outdoor temperatures have not yet aligned with these dramatic shifts in daylight. Either way, with dusk now beginning to announce its arrival during dinnertime, we can at least sense the evolution of one season into the next. A splendid benefit: Golden hour begins punctuating the end of the day earlier, sometimes while we\u2019re still noshing on gazpacho, pasta with fresh corn and chiles, and peach ice cream.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"572\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/AdobeStock_2161790116-1024x572.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5847\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/AdobeStock_2161790116-1024x572.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/AdobeStock_2161790116-300x167.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/AdobeStock_2161790116-768x429.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/AdobeStock_2161790116-1536x857.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/AdobeStock_2161790116-2048x1143.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/AdobeStock_2161790116-1600x893.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>With autumn comes more predictable evening rhythms. The school routine by mid-September has probably begun to reach a state of equilibrium. With earlier darkness, desires for coziness ramp up.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cue, tea. Invite it to help conjure fall atmospherics, if not outside at least in your spirit. Tea serves all seasons\u2014we just finished months of sipping lots of iced tea variations. But now we head into what we think of tea\u2019s high season, at least for most North Americans.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We sip tea in wool slippers and heavy robes, at the kitchen table, while it\u2019s still dark outside. Low winter light fills the living room or offices with afternoon shadows while we take breaks from tasks and work. Dark evenings compel us toward the kettle; we bring warm mugs into bed with us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the leaves begin their transformation from green into gold, crimson and persimmon, let\u2019s start turning to the teas that will comfort us across this heart-swelling season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Early Autumn Teas: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/product\/Genmaicha-Green-Tea-(Organic)\/450\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">Genmaicha Green (Organic)<\/mark><\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"493\" height=\"493\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/genmaicha.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5843\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/genmaicha.jpg 493w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/genmaicha-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/genmaicha-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 493px) 100vw, 493px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Toasted rice, grassy sencha, and a gentler caffeine lift for fall&#8217;s slower afternoons.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>With its green tea, and both roasted and puffed brown rice, this classic Japanese tea\u2014wildly popular across the island nation\u2014rings some serious autumnal bells. The savory notes from the rice, combined with the sencha tea\u2019s grassy and even seaweed aromas and flavors, fit it squarely within autumn and winter sipping.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also known as \u201cbrown rice tea,\u201d genmaicha brews smooth, with a slightly creamy texture and flavor. Due to the addition of rice, the tea also contains less caffeine than typical green teas.
