Title: Doubt this is Real Green Tea; Serving Count Inflated
Product review: I drink a lot of fresh-brewed green and black tea and have also tried several instant versions of both. This stuff looks and tastes far more like instant BLACK tea than green. I strongly suspect that they either start with a mix containing black tea, or more likely are using very crude extraction or concentration methods that oxidize the polyphenols, producing a 'secondary' black tea extract with very little EGCG and other *green* tea polyphenols.Also, the dosing instructions claim that a half-teaspoon serving contains 0.8 g of their 'proprietary blend,' giving 156 servings per 125 g bottle; however, I weighed out a level half-teaspoon of powder using a measuring spoon and a digital scale accurate to 0.1 g, and it's actually 1.2 g, so they're inflating by 50% the number of servings a bottle provides.The manufacturer is either incompetent or dishonest.
