I enjoy green tea as well, or am just starting to. I was very glad when I went to the store and saw my favorite hometown brand, Stash Tea (from just outside of Portland, Oregon) at a store here in Minnesota. They had the perfect kind, Organic Premium Green Tea, which I am excited to have more often.
