Review: Smooth, Clean Taste with a Naturally Calming Feel - This sugimito tea is a really pleasant surprise. The flavor is smooth, light, and slightly sweet with almost no bitterness, even if you steep it a bit longer. It has that clean, refreshing taste you expect from high-quality Japanese green tea, but with a softer, more mellow profile. I especially like that it feels gentle on the stomach and doesn’t give that jittery feeling some green teas can cause. It’s perfect for afternoons or even evenings when you want something calming but still flavorful. The quality is noticeable right away—the color brews into a beautiful light green, and the aroma is fresh and natural. You can tell it’s made from good ingredients, not overly processed. Overall, a great everyday tea if you’re looking for something smooth, relaxing, and easy to drink. Definitely worth trying if you enjoy lighter green teas.

We work directly with local farmers to ensure top quality, freshness, and sustainable practices. **Q: How should I store the tea after opening?** A: To preserve green tea, avoid sunlight, heat, humidity, and oxygen. Once opened, store in an opaque, airtight container away from light and heat. Before opening, our nitrogen-flushed packaging helps lock in peak freshness. **Q: Do your teas contain caffeine?** A: Yes, all our teas contain natural caffeine, but levels vary by type and brewing method. For less caffeine, try genmaicha, hojicha, or cold brew, which can significantly reduce caffeine content. **Q: What makes your green tea different?** A: Our tea is made for everyday enjoyment. After rising to the top of Japan’s tea industry, Hiroyuki Sugimoto developed a unique high roast method. We source farm-direct to ensure the leaves can handle this process and deliver rich, consistent flavor. **Q: What are your teabags made of?** A: Our teabags are made of Soilon, a plant-based material derived from starch and designed for disposal through industrial waste systems. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Smooth, Clean Taste with a Naturally Calming Feel *by J***A on 13 April 2026* This sugimito tea is a really pleasant surprise.
