I have not looked lately, but you used to have to buy in really large quantities from them.
Vacuum seal them!

For those who do not want to vac-seal, there is an air-tight bag clip
to keep air away from the unused oxy-absorbers

I think the price sounds reasonable even when factoring in the cost of the bag clip!

i have the assumption that japanese green teas (senchas and gyokuros) are best fresh. so is it safe to say that its not advisable to buy 2010 teas already as these are not as fresh as they are expected to be?
thanks in advanced!
I just ordered a couple of new senchas about a month ago and they are still very fresh!
Just get them from a Japanese vendor...they have good storage and pack the tea well
