This tea is probably not for everyone because of it's unique flavor. This allows the almost popcorn like undertone to come out. For an avid tea drinker like me, however, it's a very enjoyable change. If you are tired of just drinking plain green tea or are bored with the same old fruity varieties, this might be a tea for you.If you do choose this tea, I recommend that you brew it for 3 to 4 minutes to get the full taste. I put just a little sweetener in it most of the time, but have enjoyed it both ways. If you are truly ready for something a little different then you should probably give this one a try.
This product was received very fast.I ordered 4 pieces and was charged only 1 shipping and handling charge.
I've been drinking Yamamotoyama Genmai Cha for years. When I lived in the SF Bay Area I could buy it off the shelf in many grocery stores. Since moving away I have not been so lucky. My online order was delivered quickly.
This tea has a really good aroma and it is sealed in the foil wrap, which I think preserves the aroma and flavor better. It is very similar to the teas you drink at korean or japanese restaurants and I think they actually use the same brand.
I have never had any as good as this one, not even close. I had only been able to locate this at an Asian market many miles away. Most do not have that great, unique flavor of this brand's toasted brown rice. Imagine my delight when I found it at Amazon. I have bought and tried many other brands of green tea with toasted rice as it becomes more popular. I think the foil lined packet also helps the tea retain its flavor. Either way, happy day.
