If, for any reason, you are unsatisfied with your tea purchase from www.asamitea.com for any reason, please contact us at info@asamiteashop.com within 7 days of receiving your delivery to initiate a refund.

To receive a full refund, all unused product(s) must be returned, unopened(heat sealed) and in the original packaging, at the customer’s expense. Please include your original order ID in the return shipment, which allows us to recognize your return when it arrives at our fulfillment center.

In case there is an error from the side of Asami Tea Shop, the standard delivery charge of returns will also be refunded. The refund for your order will only be done after the receipt of the returned goods at any of our designated fulfillment centers. Once a return shipment has been received, inspected and approved, we will contact you via email and issue a full refund for the returned items. All refunds are exclusive of shipping costs, which are non-refundable. All refunds will be issued to the original form of payment used at the time of purchase. Please note that items purchased through special promotion, sales, or clearance are final sales, and therefore not eligible for returns or exchange.
