"Excellent high quality teas in this sampler. I would highly recommend though I drink them far less often then my black teas. I consider these almost special occasion teas. Not unlike a very good bottle of wine I feel drinking green tea is all about the tea and therefore not suitable to combine with eating or sipping absentmindedly at work."

"Nice mix of flavors, some I really like, overs are just okay. Didn't get the Gunpowder in mine but Earl Grey Green instead, which is quite tasty. Overall definitely worth ordering once."

"A great introduction to green teas, I honestly can't pick a favorite. I didn't receive the vanilla green in my sampler so I'll have to order that one soon to try it."

"A nice selection of green teas. The ones I've tried seemed to have more of a steamed vegitable quality than I'm used to, but they are still very good."

"An excellent starting place for new customers - all the varieties in this set are good, and can help determine must-have favorites for future orders. Would also make a lovely gift set, with traditional green tea selections and flavored teas that are pleasant and not overpowering."

"This was a delightful way to get over the green tea aversion I acquired before I knew that you had to vary water temperatures for different types of tea (horrors). I love the pi lo chun and citron green especially, but all of them were delicious and gave me a distinct feeling of health. Highly recommended! As an aside, when brewing, I found that a little more tea in the pot/cup for a minute less gave the best flavor, and lent itself best to resteeps."
