They have started nitro flushing some of their Japanese teas at least. Inside the tin is a nitro flushed bag.
That's good to hear. Maybe I'll try out the tencha at some point. I still feel a bit hesitant though.
The Tencha is curious...a rare offering in these parts...but part of me wonders why why why. Why wasn't this tencha glorified into Matcha. Always the catapillar, never to be a butterfly.

That and the killer price.
I know! The curiosity is eating at me like I'm a cat staring down Stradivarius' knife...
