[Autumn 2020 harvest]

The aroma is grainy and the taste quite bitter here. The tea has a character that is floral, vegetal and mineral at once, with flavours of dry wood, butter, and cape gooseberry. Its texture is bubbly, but also very astringent. The aftertaste is a bit sweeter with a distinct honey note.

I didn’t get so much out of this tea, but maybe later I will be in a better position to connect with it.

I had been drinking Japanese green tea for a while before discovering the world of tea in 2017. I rarely drink blends and generally avoid artificially scented teas. Other than that I try to keep it varied.
