Some hoijcha is overroaster or too thin, Mighty Leaf's is the absolute best. Never acrid or cloying even if you leave the leaves in too long... It's not an extremely high caffeine tea so I can have 2-3 cups in the morning and not suffer from insomnia.

I ordered this tea mostly because I decided to drink 2 cups of green tea per day, but I expected more in terms of taste. The smell of the leaves is not pleasant like that of most other Mighty Leaf teas, and the flavor is leafy; a little too plant-like for my taste.

Much green tea comes from places that use pesticide with impunity. What we love about this tea is that it's organic and has the robust authentic green tea flavor we enjoy in Japanese restaurants we frequent where we KNOW they don't use organic tea.

This is my favorite tea by far. You will never go back to supermarket green tea after this. I brew a pot a couple times a day, and any amount I don't drink hot gets thrown into a container so I can ice it later. One tip: try to follow the instruction to use hot but not boiling water, as this is definitely one of those teas where the taste is significantly better that way.

Everywhere we turn the health advantages of green tea are spelled out for us. My problem is that I didn't like any green tea I tasted, and believe me, I tasted a lot of them.

One day, while traveling, I ran across this tea in an airport coffee shop. It was so dramatically delicious from any other that I'd tasted that I kept the tag from the tea bag until I could locate it for home use. Now I order it by the box load - 100 teabags at a time. I can honestly say that this is the ONLY green tea I've found that I enjoy.

Thank you Mighty Leaf, for making it available.

My very health concious sister-in-law told me that most of the green tea we buy is from countries that use mad amounts of pesticide and that you should always buy organic green tea. This tea doesn't mask the green tea behind citrus, or any other flavor so you get the pungent green tea served in most of the Japanese restaurants I frequent -- it tastes authentic.

This is the absolute best green tea I have ever had. It is the only green tea that can replace coffee for me. It is full bodied and very flavorful. I look forward to my first cup of the day. I always carry some with me so that I can have some whenever the mood strikes. I have recommended it to many people and those who have tried it agree with me.

I compared this tea against another vendor, Stash, and Mighty Leaf delivered a robustness that made Stash look like yellow tea.

High grade tea, for sure!

This tea has a very unique flavor that may take getting used to. My husband doesn't like it but it's my favorite flavor. The flavor is rich, smoky, and a little nutty. It feels substantial, not thin. It picks me up, so I like drinking it in the morning and late afternoon.

 
A pleasant surprise!</
