Green Ginger Lemon - Organic Blend of Green Tea with Ginger & Lemon - Enjoy Hot or Iced - Loose Leaf Tea - Tin Box of 3.5 oz - Quantity for about 50 cups

Beautiful fragrance, wonderful taste, and it’s worth every penny. I first discovered this tea 7 years ago in my favorite cafe as they used this line of tea for their drinks. I love anything rose and this is the best rose tea by far. I also love the Kashmiri Tchai from this line. I repurchase both teas any time I run low. This is my go-to when serving my guests tea, and it tastes amazing with ground cardamom and saffron.

This tea has a lovely, fresh fragrance, as the dry product out of the container and as a cup of tea. I steeped the leaves for just over three minutes. Longer steep time would produce a bitter taste. And I let the water cool for about 30 seconds, from boiling. These tea leaves should not be subjected to boiling hot water. I've enjoyed this green tea/jasmine combination because the scent of jasmine comes forward more definitely than it ever does in combination with black tea. What I don't like is the lack of clarity concerning place of origin. It's made clear that Kusmi teas are produced and packaged in Normandy, which is known for non-toxic soils. I have no way to know where the plants for these teas are located, and this is important because certain tea growing areas of the world are heavily and dangerously contaminated with heavy metals, such as cadmium and lead. Green tea may have many inherent healthful properties, but if the leaves come from a plant growing in the soil of a reclaimed toxic waste dump, the packaged tea is going to be poisonous. And it is extremely important to know, that a plant product can be properly and legally labeled as "organic" if the leaves are not sprayed with pesticides or herbicides. This type of label says nothing about toxic metals taken up by the soil. The taste of this tea is very nice. Does not taste like it came from a toxic waste dump. I just won't purchase this again without knowing the origins, before Normandy, France.

Excellent loose tea. Great spearmint flavor. I tried this tea on a cruise and decided I had to buy it. Amazon is so wonderful. You can find all the products you need at your finger tips. There are lots of flavors to choose from and nice reusable canisters.

Yummy

I bought jasmine green tea, which costs $25, but there was no jasmine flowers and this tea was worth then $5 jasmine tea from asian market. The tea leaves are crushed, which may indicate lower quality. The price of this product does not reflect the quality.

Wonderful blend. Super aromatic, delicate and special. But the tin arrived with no lid. And this is a big tin so you really have to either have the kusmi lid on hand or you have to actually move the product into a safer storage space. We got the refund from Amazon, thankfully. But be mindful.

Fist. Always: Amazing tea. Love the packaging. Shipping: Can’t upload photos, but these very functional sealed tea tins are taped double with a plastic tape all over the lid almost impossible to remove and leaving. A terrible sticky residue. It is such a dumb thing to do with gift tea items. Who comes up with this. Why not just use a removable tape? Or a smaller tape on the side. Such a waste of time. It’s done so carelessly. It’s annoying.

Delicious, I had to share it with family and friends.
