Japanese Gyokuro AND Genmaicha Green Tea

Best green tea I've ever tasted! Worth the steep price. I've ordered much more already. HOWEVER, I also ordered Japanese Genmaicha green tea and wish to tell you it is the exact opposite. Awful!! barely drinkable, no taste, like diluted straw. I've been buying tea from you for years and have great respect for your company, but this one you should stop carrying. I've had Genmaicha before and it was delicious, the taste of the toasted rice always gave it a marvelous flavor that is totally absent here. Sorree.........

Such a beautiful and delicate green tea. Sweet and grassy is an apt description. An afternoon luxury...I think this might be my favorite tea now 🤗💚

Japanese Gyokuro

A very nice Gyokuro at an attractive price. It has that sweet, grassy, herbaceous taste without being astringent. One of my daily drinkers.
