How many teaspoon (tsp) is needed to brew a cup of tea and How much caffeine is there per cup of tea?

Recommended is approximately 1 to 2 teaspoons for every 8 oz of water but we encourage to experiment with the tea-to-water ratio to match your preference. Gyokuro has approx 140mg caffeine/g, more extracted with higher temp and longer steeping.

How many times can this tea be re-steeped and How many servings or cup of tea can this whole tea tin (50g) make?

You can re-steep it up to 3 times depending on your taste preference. Slightly increase the water temperature with each successive steeping for best results. Get about 30 cups from one tea tin, potentially more since it can be resteeped.

Is there an expiration or manufacture date on the product, and is this tea tested for safety?

Yes. The best-before date is on the kraft paper pouch or at the bottom of the tin. Our teas are also tested for mycotoxins, heavy metals, pesticides, and radiation to ensure quality.

What is the difference between the 3 'colors' and does it include the stems?

Differ in aroma-depth-flavor. Isshin: Fresh-mellow- umami notes, delicate finish for everyday. Kotobuki: Sweet-rich umami-lingering sweetness for refined enthusiasts. Mikado: Fragrant-sweet taste-smooth umami, buttery finish for special occasions.

How should I store this tea to maintain its best quality?

Store your tea in its airtight container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, heat, and humidity. We do not recommend refrigeration as temperature changes can introduce moisture and affect the tea’s natural aroma and flavor.
