I wonder if you can get this outside Japan. I'd love to try some.

You can find it at many Asian groceries worldwide. It's also not exclusively Japanese

Search for "ITO EN Mugicha Barley Tea".

There are other brands of course, but I enjoy this one and it is easy to get at my local asian foods market (as well as online).

They carry it at my local HMART.

Also called boricha on Korean. Can find in local H Mart.

I have not tried the Japanese roasted barley variety but houjicha, roasted green tea, is excellent and can find in Japantown.
