Sipdown! (37)
Technically I have another package of this tea, but it still counts because I said so! ;)
This is a lovely sencha. I was getting a lot of sakura notes this time around, which was so relaxing… Ahh…
A nice combination of mellow vegetal spinach, floral, and light umami notes. My second steep got a little bitter, I was using a new (and cute!) little jade-colored teapot and I must not have drained it enough after the first steep.
I’m happy and thankful that I still have more of this gentle sencha to enjoy at a later date! ❤

I love the names of these Obubu senchas!
I know! This one and Gushing Brook are definitely the best!
Does anyone catch comments during a freeze? Not sure if I just shouldn’t bother commenting during a freeze. Anyway, Cameron’s note leads me to ask: do others count each individual packaging of a tea as a sipdown? Or only if you finish ALL the packagings of one type of tea?
Tea-sipper: I don’t catch comments during a freeze. I have to wait until it is un-frozen to go back through my (by then, very, very long notifications list. Which is usually upwards of 200 notices to go through by the time they’ve been getting around to fixing these “freezes” (but I do go back through them…)
It seems to me most people count individual packages. I, however, do not. I only count a sipdown once a tea completely leaves my inventory.
Ah ok, thanks for seeing my questions after the freeze then. :D Personally, I count each package as a sipdown, but I can see the extra accomplishment in a tea completely leaving the “cupboard” or spreadsheet.
