Buckle up ladies and gentleman - we're going for a joy ride.
OMG! Let me know how it is!
I am by no means a tea expert and my vocabulary is pretty limited when trying to describe tea but I do know when I have some excellent tea on my hands. Hope the tea you have in your hands is most excellent bambooforest!

When i thought all hopes were lost and was getting ready to sue Fedex for loosing my Temomi, the mystery was solved. It seems that fedex driver has the keys to my condo and left the package in the reception.
To my surprise i saw a little package at my door steps when i got home and couldnt believe!!!! Setting the alarm clock earlier so I can try it out first thing tomorrow!!!

I have just ordered Organic (surprise) Asamushi (no big surprise) Sencha "Warashina Supreme" which will be my third shincha (and last I guess) this year.
Has anyone here already ordered some?

Wow, all of a sudden there are so many "credible" organics! I am anxious to hear about this one, Olivier, as I am trying not to overload the TeaFridge with shincha.
O-Cha also just added shincha Organic Kabuse. I would love to conduct a tasting of this one and Yuuki-Cha's side by side.
blah blah blah SENCHA blah blah blah!!!

Nope, not this year, first time in 3 years that I have not ordered any shincha from Hibiki, I usually get 2, a fuka and an asa so I can compare it to others.
blah blah blah SENCHA blah blah blah!!!

There is always room in the fridge for a 50g package (I ordered the new organic gyokuro as well)
