I bought this for my mom. She lives in assisted living and misses her traditional foods. She really enjoyed the tea and said it tasted like shitake. She said it was different to drink shitake rather than eat it.

I had this Mushroom Tea 30 years ago in Japan. I am very glad that Japanese Taste carries this in their site for American consumers. Good quality product.
