A classic Chinese green tea with a delicate bouquet and fresh taste, Tazo® China Green Tips contains a blend of Mao Feng green teas that are cultivated in Zhejiang province and plucked in the spring as they have been for thousands of years. After harvesting, the tea is steamed to halt the fermentation process before it can darken the leaves and alter the taste.
Ingredients: Spring-harvested green teas from China.
Tazo® was created for one purpose: to reinvent tea and the tea experience. By using high quality ingredients and a tremendous amount of experience and creativity, Tazo® has produced unique products that create an emotional connection with the consumer at many levels. Tazo® continues to expose consumers to the ancient traditions of tea, but presents this in a way that is bold, interesting and intriguing.
Unlike other tea companies, Tazo® purchases teas in their original container as packed at the garden to ensure the tea inside the chest or bag stays garden fresh and is not exposed to the heat and moisture in a blending facility at one of the tea shipping points.
The blending process is a very subtle art form that relies on subjective measurement of taste, color and aroma. Tazo® constantly tastes and determines which teas will go in which blend in what percentage, so flavor profiles remain consistent and of the highest quality possible.
The name Tazo® has roots in many civilizations. Tazo actually means "river of life" in the Romany Gypsy language and was used as a toast to life by ancient Greeks. Tazo also means "fresh" in several Hindi dialects. In ancient Babylonia, Tazo was a rejuvenating elixir thought to have magical properties.
Tazo® is kosher certified by KSA.
Food Pairings:
Pairs well with lighter dishes, noodles, rice dishes, and salads with tart sauces.
Time of Day:
Enjoy its fresh, slightly vegetative flavor with light, smooth, fruity finish all day long.

A good tea, mild and flavorful. Just a hint of bitterness keeps it a 4 instead of a 5.
I ordered the tea bags on-line because I could not find them in the stores here....after they arrived, I found them at our Wegman's market.
The price on-line is slightly higher (plus shipping) then the store, but no matter...I bought eveyrthing they had on the shelf at the store plus what I ordered on-line...I'm stocked up for quite agood time!
I was previously drinking the Green Tea you can buy cheaply in the grocery store. Your Green Tea puts the cheap stuff to shame! I absolutely love it and I drink a cup every morning.
The green Tazo tea is a big hit for anyone who is trying to enhance their health by drinking tea.
My only suggestion is if available use filtered water; it does help the clarity of the tea.
