"We really enjoy this tea--a completely different flavor than we've ever had. The toasted rice gives it an almost yeasty flavor. I mix it with a green tea and a little jasmine for a delicious, unusualy cup"

"With its unusual toasted-rice flavor profile, this is a love-it-or-hate-it kind of tea, and for me it just didn't work. Some of my friends swear by it, though, and tell me it's an excellent example of the style."

"Ok I'd imagine this is an aquired taste. It's very grassy with a strong taste of toasted grains. Personally I love it but not for everyone."

"I ordered this because I usually like green teas. I found out it was "Green Popcorn Tea." I am probably the only person on the planet who does not care for popcorn. Drinking a tea that tastes like popcorn is no joy to me. If you like popcorn you may like this tea. The only redeeming quality is that if you add sugar and cream, it does taste good, assuming you like your tea sweet."

"My boyfriend and I both love this tea. Reminds me of the rice teas my grandma always served. The grain flavor is great. If you want a strong tea flavor, you will need to add a fairly large serving, while if you want the grain to dominate, you can brew longer with less."

"This tea is not for everyone but I love it. My husband doesn't like it. The aroma is like fresh (non-buttered) popcorn, and he feels like he should be chewing it ;-) But truly the green tea flavor is there too, just more toasty. "
