I hope I'm reviewing the correct tea. The bag has no label, but it tastes like green tea and looks like sencha. This tea was given to me as a gift, so I'm giving the 3/5 score on the value purely as a placeholder.

This tea has a pleasant, smooth flavor, and even though I steeped it for something like 5 minutes it lacked the bitter astringency that over-steeped teas tend to acquire. So far as mid-grade sencha goes, this seemed perfectly respectable.

I wouldn't make a trip into New York City for the sole purposes of buying it, but if you happen to be in the area, this certainly wasn't bad at all.
