Is your packaging resealable.
Feb 2, 2019, 10:03Hello,
Some of our teas are, but this particular one is not resealable. You will need to seal it up well or put it into some kind of container. - Oct 6, 2018, 05:03

lite green taste - Stephen ChenNov 13, 2017, 05:30Excellent tea, be careful with the brew!
- Justin EarnestNov 10, 2017, 01:32A delicious high-quality gyokuro. The more I brew this one, the more I like it. Brewing times/temperatures are tricky with this one. I can get several steepings from it. This one is light, subtle, and sweet with a light color. It's one of the sweeter Gyokuro's I've tasted. Although it's a great tea, I prefer the Uji Yume no Ukihashi since it has a little more body.
- Risto OjalaJun 2, 2017, 18:13Nice taste, nice color, remember right temperature, and you will enjoy good taste!
- Nancy HallDec 21, 2016, 07:08Outstanding tea that is perfect every morning. It is slightly sweet and mellow and brews perfectly at 165 degrees for 3.5 minutes. This is one of my favorites.
- John LebelMay 15, 2016, 03:59This is excellent tea! Easy to brew following your directions and can be steeped many times.
- Jens EvensenApr 2, 2013, 06:39One of my favorite teas.
- Martin SiudaDec 30, 2011, 09:00From the moment I opened the packaging and took that first whif, I knew I would enjoy this tea. If brewed correctly, it has a nice, sweet taste on the first infusion with a flavour that lingers long after your cup is empty. I would recommend this tea to any first time gyokuro drinker.
