Guys, I got this package of tea for like 3 years ago and it doesn't have any sort of expiration date.
Is it safe to drink it ? If so how should I expect the flavour to be? Note that it's never been opened it's been stored fram from any sort of humidity.
Thank you guys 🙏

It’s probably safe to drink, would probably be very stale. Not worth the tiny risk
It’s tea leaves, and it looks like the vacuum seal is still intact. It will outlast all of us.
Having said that, it says “shincha” or new-flush tea on it, meaning it was picked from new leaf buds early in the season and was meant to be enjoyed immediately as a delicacy. You might be missing out on some or all of that freshness and delicacy. But it should still taste good and be safe to drink.
