CUSTOMER LOVE

"Love love love! Beautiful turmeric. I've been looking for real product for a very long time. This Turmeric I welcome in my daily healthy routine."
"I am glad I can find quality Taiwanese high mountain tea here in the US. The taste was fresh with light fragrance. Really refreshing!"
"Love it! Exactly what I was looking for. Arrived quickly with lovely wrapping and free tea samples."
"My gaiwan is beautiful and fits perfectly in my hand. Thank you, love it!"
"Thank you for offering such pure products. The turmeric promotes brain and overall health — it's extremely difficult to find in its truest form. Wishing you the greatest success."
"This gaiwan is stunning and well crafted — just the perfect size. Shipping was lightning fast. It's beautiful and rather different than so many on the market."
"OMG I love this item. It's a little smaller than the other one I have, which I like because it's the perfect pour into my cup. Also love the design. Even better, there was a little tea treat for me added!"
"I received my gaiwan with matching dish the other day. It is beautiful and fits in my hand perfectly so I can keep tea leaves in while pouring my tea out. Thank you, love it."
"As a tea enthusiast with a collection of premium teas, Living Roots is in a league of their own. Rich, complex flavors that speak to the care behind every leaf. Once you try it, you'll understand."
