Review
Brewed roughly 4 grams of tea with bottled water in a small glass pitcher.
Rinsed for 5 seconds.
First Steep
Steeped for 30 seconds.
Mild. Not Bitter.
Not one of those juicy early spring teas, but a bit more earthy.
Little bit of a spice on the end of the palette.
Not incredibly floral.
Produces a darker colored tea broth then most other green teas.
Flavor notes: Chinese herbs, malt, grass, sweet, and earth.
Second Steep
Steeped for 1 minute.
Notes of grass have appeared.
The most interesting apart about this tea is probably the lingering Chinese herb flavor.
The tea dries the mouth a bit.
Conclusion
It’s ok. Perhaps a bit unique. It’s different from what one might expect from a green tea.
I could see some people really enjoying the herbal nature of this tea, but I prefer my green teas to be a little juicier in flavor.
