Thats right guys, here I am sipping my cheap lipton green tea wishing it were something more.

During Japanese class in high school I experienced the best green tea of my life..but have no clue what it was called.


so post up some brands of some really good stuff I can try, or links to places to buy it

thanks!!!

 

truth be told, the best green tea in the world is actually white, and in powder form. You can see thats what they use in most japanese tea ceremonies.





it's also best enjoyed raw w/o water and through the nose.

tea.com

try a local up scale oriental food store

 

best green tea in a plastic bottle is Vitamin Water - Rescue

as far as brewed green tea, I could not tell you

 

Honest Tea is suppose to be the best (healthiest + taste) bottled green tea.

 

I really like the Vitamin Water green tea but it doesn't taste much like green tea, IMO.

For tea in bags, I drink Ten Ren everyday.

For straight leaves, I never really did that too much and what I had didn't have an English name.

 

You can get decent bottled green tea at Target these days.
It's by itoen and it's called Tea's Tea. It tastes exactly like what they have in Japan.
