Green tea is believed to reduce the risk of cancer, cardiovascular disease and even cavities. Its health benefits, while mostly unconfirmed, have made it increasingly popular in the Western world where black is traditionally the tea of choice. The most expensive green tea in the world, however, still hails from Japan.
Produced by Royal Blue Tea Company, this green tea is sold in a 750ml wine bottle. It’s called King of Green Masa Super Premium and it’s made with rare leaves handpicked from Shizuoka Prefecture and infused for three days. If you were expecting anything but the finest green tea leaves, you’re going to be disappointed—this luxury tea has no additives.
Only thirty-six bottles of Masa Super Premium are available. They’re shipped in a wooden box and can be had for a cool $2,500.
