Very tasty. Rich, full flavor when brewed for 2 minutes. I sense no bitterness or off flavors, only great tasting tea. I found these on sale at Whole Foods for $6.99. That's only .50 per bag, which can be used 2-3 times.

I will admit that the tin seems wasteful. Lost one star for that.

i love green teas, and have tried many, but this is one of the best i've ever had.

Best tasting Green Tea, very rich flavor. The tin keeps tea fresh.
Shipping time was prompt.

Well, if anyone can find a better green tea you should let me know. I have never been fond of green tea due to the bitterness - until now. Ineeka creates teas of such quality. I am impressed with the smooth flavor and lack of bitterness and, finally have a green tea that I can enjoy every day. FYI - Their Himalayan Black is my all time favorite tea.

A little expensive, but extremely good. I can tell a big difference from cheaper teas, such as Tazo-brand green teas. I drink it on special occasions, maybe twice a week. Very mild, non-bitter flavor and aroma. I find this to be one of my favorites. There is a lot of waste in throwing out the aluminum container the tea comes in, please recycle!

i lived in japan for four years and have tasted wonderful green tea, but this is not one of them. i found the taste watery and stale, and the tin is wasteful--the top part being hollow (to make it look bigger?) i also found the tea bag style more gimmicky than useful. "Choice" green teas or others similar are easier to use and brew up a much better tea (course, loose, fresh tea is always superior to bagged tea).

Some people like the tea bag, but I don't. My tea cup is not big, and I won't throw the tea bag away after just one fill. I would like to refill my cup because there are still much content left in the tea bag. But it was not convenient to do so because of the design of the tea bag.
Since I did not want to throw it away after the first fill, while I was dringking the tea, I had to either find a place to put it or I had to let it just sit on the edge of my tea cup. By the former way, it was not very convenient; while by the latter way, it was not easy for the mouth to find space to drink.
Anyway, I must say I like the traditional tea bag.
The taste of the tea was not bad and was not much better than the others.
The only thing I like is the container.
To conclude, I won't buy the tea again.
