We post all our green tea and tea ware directly from Japan to almost anywhere in the world. We ship all orders within 24 hours of your order being placed and are open year round.
SHIPPING METHODS:
Airmail:
• Airmail usually takes 6-12 days.
• Reasonably fast, reliable and cheap.
• NO tracking number, online tracking, or insurance.
• Parcels are not registered. Therefore, you are not required to sign for the parcel upon delivery.
• It is possible that your parcel will be delivered when you are out and taken back to the postal depot until you claim it. In this case, you should call your local post office or sorting office to see if they are holding a parcel for you.
• NOT RECOMMENDED for bigger orders of value, or breakable items such as matcha bowls, teapots, or anything made of breakable materials. EMS shipping is highly recommended in these instances.
• If you choose to ship breakable items or orders of value by Airmail, you do so at your own risk. We CANNOT be held responsible for loses, thefts, or breakages caused by mishandling along the postal route.
• Some countries impose customs duties and clearance fees on tea, tea ware and international parcels. We have no control over this and CANNOT be held responsible for these fees. Therefore, it is advisable for you to contact your local customs office regarding this matter if you are unsure of the fees you might incur.
• By law we are obliged to disclose the correct value of the items on the Airmail customs declaration form of each order. We CANNOT manipulate these values in any way, shape or form.
EMS (Express Mail Service) with tracking and insurance:
• EMS usually takes 3-6 days and includes tracking and insurance.
• Rapid, very reliable and safe.
• Highly recommended for bigger orders of value, or orders that include breakable items such as matcha bowls or teapots.
• Your parcel has a tracking number and online tracking is available. After your parcel has been sent out by us we will email you with your tracking details.
• You will be required to sign for your parcel upon delivery.
• Loses, thefts or breakages can be refunded in full and replaced. If this situation occurs, please contact us for details about how to claim.
• It is possible that your parcel will be delivered when you are out and taken back to the postal depot. In this case, EMS requires that either the courier leaves contact information to enable you to claim your parcel, or repeat attempts to deliver your parcel will occur.
• If you don’t receive your parcel within 3-6 days, the courier forgot to leave contact details, or there was no repeat attempt to deliver your parcel, you should call your local post office or sorting office to see if they are holding a parcel for you. Make sure you have your 13 digit EMS tracking number at hand.
• Some countries impose customs duties and clearance fees on tea, tea ware and international parcels. We have no control over this and CANNOT be held responsible for these fees. Therefore, it is advisable for you to contact your local customs office regarding this matter if you are unsure of the fees you might incur.

In this case, we will refund the sub-total of your order minus any shipping costs we incurred when we sent it out to you, or it is possible we will resend the parcel after discussing the problem with the customer.
