NEPUREPine Needle Tea Dried Leaves Natural Herbal Tea Wellness K-Food, Korean Herb (1.8kg(64 oz))

I was too dirty for me to consider using, and some of the needles were moving....you know what that means.

I don't think these pine needles were fresh. There was no aroma. The tea didn't seem to agree with me. I tried it twice to make sure and I haven't used it since. Waste of money for me.

This is a great company and an amazing product. I highly recommend it. The product itself is amazing. Fragrant and tasty. There were some minor hiccups with shipment,etc. *UNIMPORTANT. The company responded immediately and all the issues were resolved perfectly to my satisfaction. Further, they went out of their way to make sure that I am satisfied. It is rare to see suck customer service and quality product. Thank you Nepure. Great work and great product!

The pine needles have neither taste nor smell. You are just bad. And the item is not eligible for return despite the high price of $ 17.99.DON'T BUY!

great scent and a good value

I hadn't heard of pine needle tea before this.According to HerbalMusings, some possible health benefits:* Strengthens immunity* Relieves bronchial and sinus infection* Disinfects mildew, yeast spores and Escherichia coli* Protects against the common cold and flu* Neutralizes free radicals* Guards against muscle degeneration, eye diseases, and nervous system disorders> As you can see from my pictures there is clearly dry, brown, dead needles mixed in here-- I could not find any brewing instructions anywhere. I even posted a question here on the Amazon product page, but neither the manufacturer or anyone else answered.I searched the Internet for brewing instructions and what I settled on and tested:* 1 tablespoon needles to 8oz boiling water* Steep 15-20 minutes* Add natural honey or another preferred sweetener> I made a full 6-cup pot of this and used Stevia Leaf for sweetener.The liquid is clear even after steeping nearly 20-min.It does have a pine needle aroma.+ I actually like the taste!+ I like the potential health benefits from drinking this.> 300g is anywhere between 20-24 tablespoons (according to several converters).I will get more than 6 tablespoons for 4 times (24 tablespoons) in this bag. So for $25 at the time of this writing, there are more than 25 cups worth in the bag.NOTE: There are many recipes on the Internet that try to explain you can only use certain pine needle trees for a tea without poisoning yourself or making yourself sick and ones you can forage yourself. So this bag makes it convient.Also, I would follow the only instructions on the bag and wash/rinse your needles before steeping.OVERALL:This was a very pleasant first experience.If the manufacturer could provide clear instructions on the bag (even if it's just a place to start if you've never had this before, like me), then this would get a better rating.

I didn’t know pine needles can become tea until I saw this product. I like the aroma of pine trees, so I thought it would be interesting to try this tea. Also it seems to be a healthy option, and is caffeine free.The tea is all natural and no other additives. It seems to be naturally dried, still keeping the original green color of pine needles. Preparing this tea is bit different than I normally do for other herbal teas. It requires to be boiled in boiling water for about half an hour. The tea coming out taste not bad. It has the familiar pine tree aroma, not super strong but I can sense it.
