Review: I'm guessing that this is a sencha green tea flavored with pear. As far as the pear flavoring goes, it wasn't overdone, which is nice. While I didn't think this was a spectacular tea, I didn't dislike it either. If you're a pear fan, you will probably like this tea. In fact, this tea may be even better iced, so if you're one of those people who only like iced tea, give this a try as well. I found some instructions for brewing loose-leaf iced tea here.
