Research notes

URL differs from typical /products/ pattern (uses /collections/tea/products/ path). Price ($39) is very close to the $41 Green Breeze bulk 300g product despite larger 400g size, suggesting Culinary Grade is the cheaper-per-gram bulk option. Notably this product is NOT labeled organic on its own page, unlike the Gold and Silver grades.
