Sandra OttonOkt 26, 2018, 09:38I have found this years organic Chiran seems to be best when brewed at a lower temp or it developes some bitterness. I don’t know if it is due to weather conditions this year. I am also not getting an oceanic/seaweed quality which is why I’ve been favoring Chiran the last three or so years. I found the same to be true with another vender this year.

AkiNov 20, 2017, 12:57Been drinking this for years, having it brought from Japan by a relative - and finding Ocha.com allows us now to never go without. Too bad about the problems with shipping to Canada which raises the cost but it's still worth it.

Michelle SéguinOkt 11, 2017, 02:29This is by far the best green tea I have ever had. It completely ruined me for other teas, I cannot go back and drink tea from a bag or restaurant anymore. I even bring some with me when I travel and go out.
