This is one for Green Tea aficionados here ...
any of you know where I can get Takaokaya Sencha as loose tea, rather than the usual tea bags I now buy?

I haven't been able to find it anywhere, not in Japanese / East Asian shops, not online.

I prefer Takaokaya teabags over the Yamamotoyama bags and loose tea, and also over Ujinotsuyu ...

These are the bags I drink atm http://takaokayausa.com/tos/product_info.php?produ...
This is the loose tea I'm after http://takaokayausa.com/tos/product_info.php?produ... or http://takaokayausa.com/tos/product_info.php?produ...
But from a UK source

Co-incidentally, he's a big petrol head too - don't know if he's on here.

They don't do it, I've tried all the usual places that tend to do this sort of stuff, and none of them seem to have the loose tea version frown
