http://purematcha.net/faqs : Pure Matcha comes from the Nishio region. This is not listed as an area affected by the radiation.

There's an individual that's pretty consistent in commenting to the comments of others in regards to Matcha products and they say: "...just make sure you're not purchasing Matcha teas affected by the radiation fallout in Japan--which means avoiding ALL tea from the Shizuoka Prefecture region. The two brands that I know ARE safe are DoMatcha and Pure Matcha (there are others, but these are the two that I know of--not to mention they are high quality). They come from a region of Japan far away from ground zero. They are from Kagoshima, which is as far west from Fukushima as Denver is from New York. Also, the air currents go the opposite direction, which is why radiation has not been detected in those areas. Just thought you should know. :)"

No, definitely from Japan. Check out the DōMatcha website---all the information you would need is there.

Yes, it is. It is produced by Fuji Cutlery, fairly large factory of Fujitora Industries, which was established after the war, in 1953 as Fujitora Industries, in the city Tsubame, in the west central prefecture of Niigata. They started out making farm equipment, I believe.

I just confirmed - it's China or Korea. Just got this email from them" 1000mg Chlorella: While previously Taiwanese current country of origin is China or Korea. They are grown in controlled outdoor commercial fresh water ponds. They are processed in their respective countries and packaged here in our Bloomingdale, IL USA facility. I too want to find a source that is not China.

There is nothing on the container to say where it actually was harvested. Other then in the name Ceylon. They have their website on the package indusorganics.com, if you go to the website they say that this product comes from Sri Lanka and Southern India and is not the Cassia form which comes from Indonesia and Vietnam and is no good for you in large amounts.

I was wondering the same thing, and I read a lot of articles online that stated that the uji region wasn't affected by it, but who knows for sure, that could all not be true, also on youtube I found this video where some guy tested it for radiation and it had radiation in it. so idk....... china theres lead, japan radiation, hard to find a good matcha elsewhere.

Hi Rosebud, The EGCG levels are comparable in both Chinese and Japanese Matcha. Matcha has over 1,300 units per gram of ORAC Antioxidant Value.

The Black Japonica Rice says "Manufactured and Distributed by Lundberg Family Farms, Richvale, CA." That sure sounds like a field blend from California. It is also "Verified non-GMO," which I doubt would be possible in Japan, and certainly not in China. As for the other brand, I have no idea but would suspect they add chemicals to their rice.

You conduct research by doing a search on google as follows, " Is tea grown near Fukushima?" . You learn very interesting details on the subject. Tea only grows in specifics climates and tempetures. Fukushima is to cold to grow tea. Also it'll help you to look at a map of Japan. Itll give you a visual perspective on where in Japan tea growers cultivate tea. Most have cultivate tea in those same regions for hundreds of years. There are three main place in Japan where tea in grown. Shizuoka, Kagoushima, and Uji are the most vommon places. Kagoushima for example in located on one of the Japanese islands over a thousand miles away. I couldnt for the life of me find the company website though, however i do know tea isnt grown in or around Fukushima. Continue researching on where tea is grown in Japan, along with some of the locations ive provided. And if its intrigues you then why not research where tea is grown around the world. Its pretty cool if you love tea that much and where all you foods are grown and its content. Good luck on your shopping decision making. I honestly i have no complaints on this product.

Manufactured in Japan. It is plastic, well made and durable. Makes a great single cup of coffee.

I believe it is Japan. All the directions are in a foreign characters which I don't understand. We have used it and just went through our first 50 lb bag. We like it. Seems simple but well made.

Japanese, made in Malaysia (maybe Thailand, I don't have the thermos in front of me) keeps things hot for a really long time. Worth the money!
