Review by O. Brown for Tazo China Green Tips Green Tea, 20-Count Tea Bags (Pack of 6)
Rating:
*****
Tazo’s China Green Tips Green Tea is a slightly stronger green tea than Tazo’s Zen, and I liked that it doesn’t contain Tazo’s omnipresent “natural flavors” that almost all of their other teas contain, which to me is not an advantage. I like a natural, real taste with real ingredients sans vague “natural flavors” and sans flavorings, sans essences, etc. China Green Tips delivers this in a cleaner, purer way than Tazo’s other teas. I liked this green tea!
The ingredients in China Green Tips are simply spring-harvested green teas from China. It contains caffeine.
Tazo is an interesting company that makes only super premium teas. They are socially responsible, based in Portland, and have the motto, “The Reincarnation of Tea”. Tazo is owned by Starbucks. Their web site is fun and quirky, with a Zen-type focus, definitely worth checking out. It is unclear, though, from their web site, how many of their ingredients are organic or kosher, and they do use some “natural flavors” in their teas–this wording seems a little vague and unnecessary for a super premium tea. China Green Tips has none of these “natural flavors” and it shows in the quality and cleanliness of the tea experience.
On the paper tea packet, Tazo writes, “a traditional Chinese green tea with a delicate fresh taste and a light green liquor.” This is the perfect way to describe this tea! On their web site, Tazo describes the flavor profile of China Green Tips as “grassy, vegetative, sweet, ricey”. Tazo describes the aroma as “vegetative, popcorn”.
I would rate this tea, and Tazo in general, as very good—better than premium teas like Stash or Celestial Seasonings—but not as good as Numi or Aspen. Still, this tea is excellent, so I’m breaking my tradition with Tazo teas and giving it five stars. If you enjoy super premium teas, and are stuck with Tazo for some reason, choose China Green Tips and you will be quite satisfied. I can’t honestly say that about any other Tazo tea.

This green tea tastes like the expensive green tea my father bought as a present for his professor grown in asia. It has that nice subtle gentle flavor underneath the usual green tea flavor which I really love. It’s not too harsh (for me anyhow) and I don’t like it when people mix green tea with lemon… so this tea is good for me to just enjoy the tea leaf flavor without breaking my bank!

The following recommendation is based on having enjoyed over 100 tea varieties in the last 2+ years.
When steeped as recommended…
Tazo China Green Tips tastes just as you would expect for a green tea. Pleasant and mild… for a much harsher and strong taste… steep longer.
Try it.

I really enjoy the distinct flavor of this Tazo. I prefer the straight green teas, rather than those with other flavorings added (except for the delicious Genmai Cha with toasted rice). I’ve been trying a variety of Japanese green teas, including Sencha, and some brands have been high in quality and flavor. But they have been weaker-tasting than this one, too, which has disappointed me. I find that most Chinese green teas tend to have a smokier or not as bright flavor, and are sometimes not even green in color. Although labeled “China”, this Tazo looks and tastes more like a grassier Japanese-style green tea. I’ve read that fluoride levels in green teas, particularly those from China, can be pretty high, and I don’t think this Tazo green is organic either. Some teas labeled “Japanese” are actually harvested in China. I noticed many green teas advertised here do not mention where the tea comes from. It’s a concern, though not a deal-breaker, and I’m still looking for a real Japanese green tea that matches the flavor strength of this one, as well as the reasonable price.

I would exercise extreme caution with this tea. I used to drink one cup of China Green Tips Tea in very clean water per day. After 6 months, it had toyed a great deal with my endocrine system.
The toxic limit of fluoride is 1 mg per liter, and this tea exceeds 8.
The toxic levels of fluoride is a product of the adulturated land and water of China. As a note, don’t buy ANYTHING from China if you value your health!
