448477448477B004HADYDYA313H6238N589Jaewoo Kim "OB-Wan"0051339286400Top QualityThis is a top quality Green Tea and certainly on-par with the best I have tasted (I drink a lot of green tea and tried various brands). Note, this tea does not come in a tea-bag. If you are looking for the highest quality green tea, then this tea will deliver.

There is a significant difference between tea of this quality and other high quality expensive teas. This tea is composed of first leaves that sprout in the spring, which definitely has a freshest flavor and aroma with the most potency. The quality drops significantly after the first leaves are sprouted.

Even though it is very expensive as a whole, you are only paying around 50 cents per cup. How many top-quality things in life costs 50 cents? Despite the high cost, the benefits are far higher especially if you break it down by per cup of tea.

The tea is shipped directly from Korea (it takes about 2 weeks to arrive). It's best to get it from May to June because these leaves are the "first picks" of the spring and is the freshest during that time.

The quality shows in the the color, the aroma, the taste, and the kick. The color is light (not dark) green. The aroma and taste is a subtle unami with a very slight tinge of bitterness. The caffeine kick is subtle and very gradual.

You only need to use a pinch (about 8-12 leaves) per cup. Don't use too much or else the bitterness will overun the taste. Do not use boiling water; rather use merely hot water. If you use quality bottled water, then the flavor of this tea will be enhanced even further. For me, I enjoy good tasting water even more especially with this tea.

Man111151207526400Bold aroma yet its flavor doesn't get in the wayThis has a distinct aroma and yet it only brings out the original flavor of the foods you sprinkle it on. It does what a good salt substitute should do which is to bring out your favorite flavors. Actually, it seems to do the job even better than salt itself. Most of the elderly folks that live around here prefer this to salt by far because it doesn't have that tingling aftertaste. I would recommend buying this if you can't find this at your local grocery store or supermarket even though the shipping is more expensive than the product.

Also, I use this product as the seasoning when I make cheese substitutes. It makes the cheese have a great flavor. YUM!!!
448480448480B0000CDBQFANXKW7SJ5IYAVINFP "INFP1955"6651261094400GREAT STUFFI began using Chef Paul's Magic Seasoning blends 3 yrs ago. This salt free product is THE BOMB.
Plenty of flavor--but no salt. It's perfect for adding that extra kick to a recipe without making it taste too salty.
I use it in my traditional Chex Party Mix this time of year. It's great on chicken, hamburgers, just about any type of meat.

LOVE IT

448483448483B0000CDBQFA23AOTGXSW3PSGJeff in CA121621282694400Not as magical as claimedThis wasn't available at Amazon in August 2010 so I bought it online elsewhere. I bought it based on the 5-star rave reviews here.

I have to say I'm disappointed. This product is basically a blend of peppers with a little sweetener added. I find it kind of yucky. I realize everyone has different tastes. I wanted a salt substitute to sprinkle on a bowl of brown minute-rice, which I eat often. This seasoning is not remotely as tasty as table salt, or as tasty as Onion salt. To be honest, Onion salt (from Ralphs aka Kroger) tastes 10 times better.

For this review, I sprinkled some of it on a paper plate in front of me. I dipped my finger into it right now and tasted it. First impression is a little bit of very light sweetness, followed immediately by a bitter taste in the mouth, then some pepper burn on the tongue, creeping back in the throat. I've got to drink some water. I also tried it on rice 3 times earlier in the week.

I'm a little irritated. It doesn't deserve five 5-star reviews. You can't sprinkle this all over buttered rice and get a nice tasting meal, like you can with Onion salt. Maybe Chef Paul has something better than this (that is low salt), but this is not the wondrous, magical panacea that I hoped it would be.

The company was very prompt sending the product.
448472448472B000FVMQJCAMMNGUJK4HQJ5Misty0041344470400Nice sweet tasteI was surprised to find this on the sweet side. The combo is a nice change of pace. A little goes a long ways. We have tried sweet, savory and traditional uses and we were quite plz'd.

448485448485B0000CDBQFA1MG3OVIEP1MVVHono19671151329091200Outstanding flavor!We tried this in Louisianna 5 years ago and are HOOKED! This seasoning brings such pizzaz to chicken. Marinate chiken breasts in italian salad dressing overnight. Take the chicken out and coat it heavily with Magic and grill on the bbq. THIS IS THE JUICIEST CHICKEN EVER and BURSTING WITH FLAVOR. Noone can resist seconds!!!
Sprinkle it in tuna and your sandwiches are reborn. My son coats everything with it-steaks, seafood, french fries. It really is our #1 seasoning. I swear by this stuff. I can't find it in stores in austin TX, but its inexpensive to purchase online.

His spices will make any backyard chef a master. I've not had anyone not remark on how good the steaks, chicken, fish, pork, or shrimp is.

I tried finding it in grocery stores, and it was a waste of time. Buy it on Amazon. I ordered it in the larger packages, and it's economical that way.
448476448476B0000CDBQBAYPN6YZWS3QDDFlea0051318636800It is magic!My son's favorite food is fajitas and after trying every fajita seasoning at our local grocery store we just happened to come across Chef Paul's. Once we tried it, we loved it. But now I can't find it at any store I've been to. I thank my lucky stars that there is Amazon because not only do they have this magical seasoning, they sell it in bulk too! This is by far the best fajita seasoning, IN THE WORLD!
448486448486B0000CDBQFA5OOQP5PW7SN9Tort3411316390400FlavorlessTried Paul Prudhome's Salt Free Magic Seasoning and it's a complete dud. Adds nothing remotely salt like to the flavor. Hard even to detect the chile pepper that is supposed to flavor it. It is as if it had been on the shelf for 10 years and the spices lost their zip, but the expiration date shows 2014 so it's fresh.
Mrs. Dash is by no means great but it is far, far superior
Do not waste your money.
448487448487B0000CDBQFAK11LXBWSTMSMRandall Lindsey0011348876800Another name for chile powder?If you looked up chile powder in a thesaurus, it might just say "Chef Paul Prudhomme's Magic Seasoning Blends Magic Salt Free Seasoning". After paying shipping, it was, by far, the most expensive chile powder I've ever purchased.

448492448492B00286KM2AA3VGOSF8S6MYOAJack T. Riggins "Silicon Valley Jack"5551319155200Great tea, awesome priceMy wife and I drink about six glasses of iced tea daily... each. We have two pitchers that we rotate through in the fridge at all times. Whoever empties a pitcher is responsible for rinsing it out, tossing in four bags, refilling the pitcher, and putting it back to get cold. The pitcher on the inside is the current one.

My wife is a year post-bariatric surgery patient. Until we discovered this stuff, she used to have problems keeping properly hydrated. The doctors don't particularly like the idea of her ingesting so much caffiene, but they frankly prefer it to once-every-two-month visits to the ER for intravenous fluids.

Personally, I love Monin Blackberry syrup. I learned about it through Chili's restaurants; I used to gladly fork over the $2.50 for their iced tea, which was always too weak and didn't have quite enough blackberry syrup for me. Now, thanks to the Amazon subscriptions to both products, I have all I want for about 25 cents a glass total. My daughter is equally fond of Monin Mango syrup, I may send her a case for Christmas!
448493448493B00286KM2AA38SA828URTAGPLydia4441306022400A Southerner who uses LiptonI use the store bought Lipton (less than $2 for a 100 ct).
To make GA style sweet tea, boil water in a small saucepan.
Once it's at a rolling boil, turn the heat off and place 5-6 bags in the pan and let steep for about 5 minutes.
Remove the bags once the water is dark brown.
Pour over 1 c. sugar in a gallon pitcher. Stir to dissolve sugar.
Fill the rest of the way with water and stir.
You can add more sugar if you like it sweeter (we sometimes use 1 3/4 c sugar).
This tea is delicious, and not-sickly-sweet. Secret to sweet tea is to dissolve the sugar in hot water.
448494448494B00286KM2AA1Z66K0CDKXZTDV. Christy "ArtistAtWork"4451211068800good teaI throw a bag in an all glass coffee pot and put it in my microwave till it comes to a boil then take it out. It cools off, I put it in the fridge and when I want tea I pour about 2/3 glass add more cold water and ice and it is just right to drink. It is good tasting tea. You won't be disappointed.
448495448495B00286KM2AA16DR8VKI0USSEKim1151320796800Lipton Tea Gallon BagsThis is the only way I can find the gallon size Lipton tea bags and it's a great price too. I order a few at a time so I don't run out and I get free shipping when I buy more than one at a time. Amazon is the absolute best way to get this item.

448496448496B00286KM2AA3K9EYDVOS8D9QJ. Jaros1151288137600Handy size!I like very strong iced tea and I use one bag for 1-1/2 qt. and make that much every other day. It's so easy to just pop one big bag in rather than unwrapping several small ones. The material used for the bag is different than the regular size; thicker, sturdier.

I like this size!
448497448497B00286KM2AA1CRIM13JI0ZOVBrad Peterson0051351209600ConvenientOur family drinks about two gallons of iced tea a day. Liptons gallon size bags make it easy to have iced tea on hand at all times. We put 3/4 cup of sugar into hot tap water add one tea bag and let it sit on the counter for a couple hours, remove the tea bag stir and refrigerate. So simple and so refreshing.
448498448498B00286KM2AA10MDW0A99XXKWKiefer Hardin0031348444800perfect tasteThis tea is perfect for getting that "sit in the sun or fresh brewed" tea taste in just minutes. I've used "cold brew" for over a year now and it always wins out over the brewed tea and sun tea.
448499448499B00286KM2AA1WWX2AQ1NN2UTJames R Dollens0051347926400Perfect for youriced tea maker.I have always had to open 10 or so normal teabags to make iced tea in my automatic iced tea maker. Not anymore. This is a perfect solution...1 big bag is all you need.
448500448500B00286KM2AA1QCZQTJNK3MUH. Karsten "no this isnt me..."0051347321600i love liptons...and specially the big nasi am a huge ice teafreak. I have a 3 gallon water tank in my fridge that is always holding Ice Tea.
the cool thing with this bags is I need 3 for my whole tank.

I have been told the right way is boil one pint of water for each gallon of end product you need and mix with water after the brewing. Must say, tastes great and is very convenient.

I will definitively buy it again!
