So I don't know where I should really post this, so I'll put it here and someone can move it if it's not right. Anyway, my friend got a tin of tea from a secret admirer, who unfortunately wrote a message in Chinese. She asked me for help, but I've only had 2 years of Chinese and unfortunately I can't figure out the characters!!!! I'm pretty sure it's Chinese, but I could be wrong. Anyway, can someone please help me figure this out. Here is a picture of it:

Edit:
Might be Japanese and not Chinese

To be honest, that looks Japanese to me. Unfortunately, I cannot read it either, sorry! But hopefully knowing that'll help later on..

Well, that might also be why I can't read it XD But Chinese and Japanese is fairly similar, unless it's Kanji, and I know I recognize one of the characters, but my memory just won't help me! >.<

Japanese characters have a lot less lines than Chinese haha. Hopefully someone here knows a bit of Japanese. Or if it is Chinese, then Chinese. xD

That's Japanese.

I know from the top right Kanji.....I recognize it. -has taken Japanese for 3 semesters-

But.....sadly......I have no clue.....in theory I could look through my kanji book.......but it has thousands of kanji T_T

I don't have the patience to look through them all. I'm sorry.

I don't know anymore, I posted it on like 3 forums and there's people saying it's Chinese and others saying it's Japanese, so my guess is it must be Simplified Chinese since the Japanese also use those characters.

Just to clarify, it's Chinese, my mom can read it, but she says she can't give me the English meaning V.V

EDIT:
I called her and we got it figured out, it means
High Mountain Emerald West Point

We think it might just be the tea brand, unless anyone else has a better translation. Thanks for the help! And it was defiantly Chinese, I was right :D
