Frequently Asked Questions
Is this tea portable enough to bring on a camping trip?
Yes, each sachet is individually wrapped, lightweight, and mess-free, so you can pack a few in a backpack or dry bag without worrying about spills or crushed leaves.
Can I brew this outdoors on a patio with just a kettle?
Absolutely. All you need is a heat source for water and a mug. The sachet replaces any strainer or whisk, which is ideal for outdoor dining setups.
Will this work for cold brewing on a hot day outside?
Yes, you can cold brew the sachets in cold water in the fridge or a cooler overnight for a refreshing iced tea, and the umami flavor holds up well chilled.
Is the sachet durable enough to survive being tossed in a hiking pack?
The foil individual wrappers protect each sachet from moisture and crushing, and the mesh sachet itself is sturdy enough to handle being packed alongside other gear.
Can I brew this at a picnic without leaving waste behind?
The sachets are biodegradable and BPA-free, and the used sachet can be packed out with your other compostable waste, which fits a low-impact outdoor ethos.
Is this a good travel tea for long road trips?
The individual sachets and compact box make it easy to brew in a thermos at rest stops or in a hotel room, giving you a consistent Japanese green tea experience on the road.
Can I brew this at a campsite without a full tea setup?
Yes, just steep the sachet in a camping mug of hot water, lift it out, and drink. No pot, no strainer, no extra gear required at the campsite.
Will this work in a travel mug for a morning walk or jog prep?
The sachets are designed for an 8 oz brew, so you can shake one into your travel mug, add hot water, and head out, making it easy to enjoy a clean lift before activity.
How is this different from bringing instant green tea on a trip?
Unlike instant powders with added flavors, Matcha Super Green uses real Japanese sencha and matcha leaves in a biodegradable sachet, giving you a more authentic and complex flavor outdoors.
Is this a more packable option than a tin of loose-leaf tea?
Yes, individual sachets weigh less, eliminate the need for a scoop or strainer, and protect the leaves from moisture, which is a major advantage over loose-leaf tins for travel.
I'm worried about taste quality after a long trip — will it stay fresh?
Each sachet is individually sealed, so the leaves stay protected from air, light, and moisture, preserving the umami flavor and aroma for the duration of your trip.
Will the sachet hold up if I want to shake it into my cup on the go?
Yes, the mesh sachet is specifically designed to be shaken directly into the mug to release the matcha and sencha, so you get the flavor without waste or dusty residue.
Is this tea suitable for serving guests at an outdoor brunch?
The premium Japanese blend and visually striking dark green color make it a memorable, conversation-starting beverage for outdoor entertaining, and you can serve it hot or cold.
How do I brew Rishi Tea Matcha Super Green for the best flavor?
Use one sachet per 8 oz of water at approximately 200°F and steep for 5 to 7 minutes. You can shake the sachet contents directly into the mug to release the matcha and sencha, then steep with the mesh bag for full flavor. Adjust the steep time up or down to taste.
Can I drink this tea hot and cold?
Yes. It is excellent brewed hot at 200°F for 5 to 7 minutes, and it also works well as a cold brew when steeped in cold water in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight.
How should I store the sachets to keep them fresh?
Keep the box sealed and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, heat, and strong odors. The individual sachets are foil-wrapped, so once the box is closed, the remaining sachets stay fresh for daily use.
Do I need any special equipment like a whisk or strainer to use this tea?
No special equipment is required. The biodegradable mesh sachet acts as both a brewing vessel and a strainer, so a standard mug and kettle are all you need.
Is this tea compatible with adding milk or sweeteners?
Yes. The sencha base holds up well to milk without watering down, and the natural umami sweetness of the blend means added sugar does not dim the green tea flavor. It also tastes excellent plain.
What's included in the box when I receive my order?
You will receive one box containing 15 individually wrapped biodegradable mesh sachets of organic Japanese sencha and matcha blend tea. No additional accessories are included, and nothing else is required to start brewing.
Is this product safe and free from common allergens?
Matcha Super Green is USDA Organic, Non-GMO, Gluten-Free, and Dairy-Free, and the sachets are BPA-free. It has also been rated safe on ConsumerLab, making it suitable for a wide range of dietary preferences.
Are the sachets safe to use, and do they contain plastic or bleach?
The sachets are made from unbleached mesh material and are biodegradable and BPA-free, so they avoid the plastic linings and bleach commonly found in conventional paper tea bags.
What is the difference between matcha green tea and regular sencha green tea?
Matcha is a powdered Japanese green tea made from shade-grown leaves where you consume the whole leaf, giving a more concentrated umami flavor and higher EGCG antioxidant content. Sencha is a traditional Japanese loose-leaf green tea with a brighter, more vegetal character. Rishi's blend combines both for a layered, umami-rich cup that is more complex than either alone.
