Shipping Charges

Orders are usually shipped within one business day after payment is received. If fresh tea is not immediately available, it takes about 2-3 business days to get teas sent from cold storage.

We will send you a tracking number when we ship your order. The shipping charge is displayed before you place your order.

To the United States and Australia, we ship via DHL.

  * We are not responsible for any shipping deliveries that may be affected by customs, transfers from Japan Post to the local carrier in your country or delays, nor any extra fees, customs or other charges once the package has exited Japan.

We do not offer free shipping because free shipping does not exist. If you are offered free shipping elsewhere you will be paying for shipping somewhere else in your order. 
 
Our policy is to charge as close to the actual shipping cost as possible or a little less. We do not make a profit on shipping charges.
