Have you ever tried lemongrass blended with green tea? They actually go quite well together and can be a refreshing blend. Since receiving a sample from the Seiko Tea Factory, this tea has been a staff favorite - especially on those busy days when we are thankful for the convenience of tea bags! This tea has Shizuoka prefecture's deep-steamed fukamushicha green tea as its base, along with the sweet-savory flavor of matcha which is a perfect partner for the mintiness of Japan-grown lemongrass.
