Think I got this as a mystery tea from the site as I can’t find it listed to buy. From the scent of the dry heated leaves it smells similar to a Japanese sencha so I decided to treat it in similar way to one with regards to brewing.
The first infusion had a lot of the umami, grassy tones similar to some senchas I have had, though without the same level of depth. The 2nd infusion was more grassy than the first with some fruit flavour as well but a bit less umami and a bit more astringent (though that could be due to my lack of expertise brewing Japanese style greens).
All round an interesting and unusual tea which is what I want out of a mystery tea from What-Cha. I have tried a few Georgian black teas, which I have enjoyed so it has been good to try a green tea as well.
Flavors: Drying, Fruity, Grass, Herbaceous, Umami
