This lively, balanced blend begins with the perfect combination of two fine green teas: slightly sweet sencha-style green tea and nutty pan-fired green tea. We then add spicy, earthy ginger root, a potent botanical long treasured for its distinctive flavor and reputation as a digestive aid.

My favorite tea!
This smooth tea has been a favorite of mine since I first tried it on a Celestial Seasonings tour. I'm so glad I could buy it in bulk for a really great price! I love drinking this in the afternoon or even having it iced for a drink anytime. I can stand normal green tea, but this blend is delicious. If you're new to green tea, or tea in general, this is a great tea to start with. There's also a small bit of white tea blended which gives it a more smooth taste compared to traditional green teas. Give it a try!

Smooth and pleasant!
I've drank a lot of green tea from berry-flavored to Jasmine to the plain old stuff. I recently realized that I'm sensitive to caffeine and can't have it, so I needed a quality replacement. After a lot of searching, I decided to order some of the mint decaf. And boy does it deliver on its promises!When they say it's smooth, they aren't kidding. This is the smoothest tasting green tea I've ever drank. The addition of mint and white tea makes makes for a unique and pleasant flavor. Outside of the lack of a slight caffeine boost, this tea is indistinguishable from the normal caffeinated kind.Honestly, I would buy this even if I didn't have to worry about caffeine. It just tastes great! Highly recommended!

Good product except for two things.
Good flavor. Price is little high but that is normal for Celestial Seasonings. Deducting a star since I have had had tea bags pop open in the cup. Great if you want your tea grounds read but not so great for drinking. Also, come on Celestial Seasonings put fricking strings on your tea bags. Had to buy wood stirrers to remove the tea bags from the cup. I have no way to wash metal utensils at work so I can't use them. For an environmentally friendly company I have to as you what is more friendly to the environment; a short piece string and piece of paper or a plastic spoon?

Not the tea I once knew
I've been drinking Celestial Seasoning's decaf green mint since I first found it in a grocery store several years ago, and have been supplying myself with it through Amazon since March 2009. Originally what drew me to the tea was the strong green tea flavor combined with the mint. It was basically my two favorite teas in a single cup.Then they changed the blend to include white tea. I was initially unhappy with the change, but I have to admit that it had some very positive benefits: although it diluted the green tea flavor that I loved so much, it also meant that I didn't need to care as much about the temperature of the water. The original blend, like most straight green teas, was very easy to push over into bitter flavor territory if the water actually came to a full boil. With the new white tea blend, this was pretty much a non-issue. I got used to the flavor of the white tea-based blend pretty quickly, and probably because I didn't have to worry about the water started drinking it daily.However, this morning I cracked open the first of my most recent shipment of six boxes from Amazon and when I took the first sip knew that something was badly off. Sure enough, when I fished the old box out of the recycling and compared it to the new one I found that they had added ascorbic acid to the blend (for Vitamin C).This is not a good change. It adds a distinctly fruity/flowery flavor to the tea that is completely out of place. The flavor reminds me strongly of Celestial Seasoning's berry zinger teas (which I tried in a sampler pack, and never drank again); if you like sweet, fruity teas you might not mind this, but I can't stand sweet teas myself and now I find myself with six boxes of tea that I don't know what to do with. I'll probably save it for the summer and make iced tea (since cold cuts down on strong flavors, that should hopefully make it a bit more drinkable).Celestial Seasonings has proven themselves quite willing to experiment with their blend, so hopefully they will eliminate the ascorbic acid in the future or find some way to rid the tea of its fruity overtones, but until then I can no longer recommend this tea. As for what I'm going to replace it with, I'm at a bit of a loss. Maybe it's time to go back to straight green, interspersed with days of peppermint.

Yummy healthy tea
Love this tea, hard to find in stores in this specific flavor but it's my favorite. I've tried a lot of the flavored green teas, but this is the best (Elephant logo) Perfect hint of citrus and add honey (orange blossom) to add more sweetness and flavor if u like! Great price on amazon!

Excellent and recommended but do note caveats below
Please note that unlike most Celestial teas this one does have some caffeine as it is a mixture of green and white teas. So, if you do not want any caffeine at all then this tea is not for you. Also, this is really not a substitute for those who have an appetite for a traditional black tea/cream/sugar combo. But if you're looking for something which is akin to herbal tea in flavor but carries a little extra punch from a little bit of caffeine plus whatever benefits regular tea (as opposed to herbal tea or infusion) confers then this is for you. Has a nice citrusy flavor too. The box says antioxidant which I presume comes from the teas. I have pretty much stepped away from black tea to this one. I admit it took a while to get used to the change. But not pouring all that caffeine and sugar into my system is probably a movement in the right direction. Additional ingredients have been thrown in such as Vitamins A and C. Unless you're allergic to vitamins :-) that shouldn't be an issue.

Best tea
This is my favorite tea it has matcha and green tea i can drink this all day. It is very light and pleasant not too strong like other brands of green tea/matcha tea. I bought it here because i cant find it anywhere else, this is during covid pandemic probably why. Value for the money is great i compared the price of 1 box to other sites i got 6 boxes with 20 teabags in each box for less than 30 i also subscribe to subscribe and save program here in amazon.

my fav
This tea is by far my favorite. Of course, why I ordered 6 of them at a time.I personally do not care for it with added lemon juice. It throws off the perfectly balanced flavor of the tea itself.This tea is like my daily coffee (not that it keeps me awake, I just mean as far as habits go I drink it as often as one coffee drinker may drink coffee)I pair it with some organic wildflower honey and *chefs kiss*
