I made my way to LA's Little Tokyo today and while in the LIttle Tokyo Marketplace (big Japanese grocery store), I came across a large selection of Den's Tea! I wish I would have seen the Extra Green Genmaicha Loose Leaf! It was there and my boyfriend pointed that out to me. But after I bought the bags. The bags are still great and so far it's the only thing I've had. Soooo amazing!!

Well, Den's Tea is based in Torrance, so I guess that makes sense.

brad4419 - If there's an independently owned grocery store near you, you might speak to the owners about stocking a brand of tea if their distributors carry it. I got the IGA around the corner from me to stock Apple Spice Reed's Ginger Brew upon request.

Thanks aya, thats a great Idea its definatly worth a try. My area has 2 IGA's around so maybe I can try them first, hopefully they have the same or simmilar distributer as your IGA.
