5.0 out of 5 stars The original Oi Ocha sold in Japan, January 28, 2009

Nothing against the prior reviewer who does not believe this is the original Oi Ocha, but I must say though...as a repeat buyer both of these 16.9 oz. bottles from Amazon as well as 2 liter imports straight from Japan, the two are identical. Every now and then I feel like having the stronger Oi Ocha Koi Aji (not sold by Amazon as of the time of this review), so I'm familiar with it as well. I've uploaded three photos, comparing the packaging, as well as closeups of exactly 1.0 fl. oz. of each. (The prior reviewer's pic has ice, no listed amount, and appears to be far darker than the Koi Aji he believes it is.) Hopefully, this will help folks decide for themselves...as for me, I'll just keep on drinking my favorite beverage.

On to the actual review...for informational purposes, most of the bottled "green tea" sold in the US is nothing like real green tea. It's essentially tea-flavored kool-aid, with ingredients that have no business being there. Do not expect Oi Ocha to... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Delicious - Love it!, June 4, 2008

Why oh why drink sugar-laden sodas or even aspartame-filled diet drinks when you can drink something that's tastey and natural as well as good for you? That's what this stuff is - good green tea in a bottle that is ready-to-drink. It's absolutely great when cold. (The taste is nutty and mild.) Best of all, it has ZERO calories. But to be honest, I don't drink this because of the lack of calories. I drink it because it tastes GOOD. Buy some and see why it's getting very popular - even among those who aren't dieting.

5.0 out of 5 stars I'm hooked!, February 17, 2009

I've always loved tea in general and prefer to drink tea over most other things. My story starts last year when I vacationed in Hawaii. I stayed at my buddies house and we made a trip to Costco. One of the items that he picked up was a case of Ito En Green Tea in a can, yes I said can. Being that it is always hot in Hawaii I was excited about trying this drink.

We left the tea in his fridge over night and the next morning I opened my first can. It was surprisingly good. I would say it has a medium bodied taste that is very, very smooth. The colder it is, the better. I liked it so much, that's all I drank on my 2 week vacation. I actually drank so much, I had to keep going back to Costco to buy more.

Anyway, I come back to California and the first thing I do is go to Costco hoping they have this tea. Sadly, they don't carry any non-sweetened teas in the store. It became painfully obvious how much soda, juice and sweetened drinks everyone drinks... Read more
