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.
This is not the tea i get at my local sushi place but it is a fabulous tea, i carry a tea bag in my purse at all times. It has a warm nutty flavor that stems hungar and relaxes the mind. highly reccomended.
Yamamotoyama genmai cha green tea is by far my favorite tea. Buying is bulk is a good deal. I did notice the tea bags did have a bit of tea dust on them. You should shake the bag out before you put it in your water.
if you like green tea, you will love genmai cha. the roasted rice gives the green tea a lovely mellow flavor. if you like it sweet, add a touch of sugar. i find i don't need to add anything to it; this is the perfect complement to a hearty meal, or to help with digestion right afterward.
