I suggest dumping the tea into an airtight container (they have a lot of cute ones available here on Amazon) or placing the entire box in an extra large zip lock bag.
Brews wonderful we do 1/2 cup of gunpowder and 1/2 cup of strawberry tea using a quart mason jar. Let brew for a few hours than pour into a gallon jug and add 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 blue agave sweetener, squeeze a lemon or 2 in chill and enjoy the most amazing tea.
The first thing you notice on opening the package it the Aroma, it smells wonderful. The second thing your notice is the unique and uniform cut, almost like little balls. I make this 8 cups at a time in an insulated pot. The first time I made it, I used two full tea balls, it made a very strong tea. I now make it with a half a teaball, and it is still plenty strong. One of the things I noticed is the tea, even very strong is not bitter, does not seem to get bitter even with extended steeping (I do not remove the teaball from the pot until I finish the pot, I know you can not do this with most green teas as they do get bitter) I highly recommend this product, it is a superior green tea. Tea is fresh and flavorful.
2) Negative: The packaging is the worst I have seen. The thin plastic wrap was broken on delivery. Inside the box the paper wrap is not enough protection. Immediately remove the tea from its packaging and store so as to avoid light, heat, and moisture. I keep some of the better packing I receive when purchasing teas for reuse and that is where mine went as soon as I opened it.
3) Shipping: I am making this public in an effort to facilitate a change. My tea was left at my front door. No, they did not ring the doorbell. No, they did not knock on the door. Yes, I was home. Yes, I checked the front often. No, they did not leave it at the back like I usually request, but such requests have been ignored in the past. The obvious problem with the front door is that I live on a busy street, there is a fast food restaurant next door, there is a bus stop in front of my house, a commuter train stop in front of my house, and a pedestrian marked cross path with flashing signs right in front of my house. How anyone can be so careless and unprofessional as to leave a package of any kind in such an overly public place is beyond reasoning out. Hence, my need to add this to my review in the hopes that public awareness will promote a change.
The truth is that this trash is just mixture of black and green tea and ground up stems
So, remember, rinse and pour it out 2 times for 1min each time and by the 3 time/3rd minute, it will be ready to drink and enjoy 😉.
