Genmai Green Tea Review & Giveaway


I'm not a big tea drinker, but my family is.  In fact, I have to be in a 'mood' to drink tea, but I've been trying valiently the past few months to drink a few cups of green tea a couple of times a week for it's health values, namely anti-oxidents and reducing fatigue. I drink alot of coffee, and tea does have caffeinne in it as well, but it is greatly reduced.  I recently found Genmai green tea and was pleasantly surprised. It has a great taste, as was very pleasant to the palate.

You can see how to make the perfect cup of tea in this video.

They are committed to socio-economic and planetary betterment from recycling of  waste, to reuse of the elements of theirproduction (such as making vending machines and park benches ouy of recycled tea). Check out this bench made with 20% recycled tea.  It's really cool!!

    Oi Ocha is one that my dad used to love. It really is nice. I didn't know they had Jasmine green tea so I'd like to try that one as Jasmine is super yummy.

    Copper & Brass Mesh Tea Strainer would be great for my daughter. We have a real cheap one that she's not keen on using, but she loves ALL types of teas, esp the decaf or low caf ones. She is very sensitive.

The old grey donkey, Eeyore stood by himself in a thistly corner of the Forest, his front feet well apart, his head on one side, and thought about things. Sometimes he thought sadly to himself, "Why?" and sometimes he thought, "Wherefore?" and sometimes he thought, "Inasmuch as which?" and sometimes he didn't quite know what he was thinking about.

Thank you for taking time out of your day to leave a comment. It's appreciated.
