Favorite new tea!
I start everyday with green tea and now I am obsessed with this one! It’s toasty and warm in the best way. I will be purchasing again!

Toasty Roasty
This is a delicious tea! It has toasted, roasted, nutty, almost chocolatey notes and a loooong finish

I love the Houjicha
It's my favorite type of green tea. I have a friend who often brings me from Japan when she visits. But anything I get here in the States nothing compares to what I can get from Rishi or straight from Japan. To me its the perfect strength and flavor and I have been buying it from Rishi for years now. since 2018 I believe.
