4 Tasting Notes
Very interesting tea… Ive tried brewing it cooler and warmer and so far very much prefer the smooth mellow taste of the cooler steeping. The stems provide an interesting “twang” to the tea. If you are tired of sencha or gyokuru this is a great tea to add to your cabinet.

Took a few times but I think this is the best temperature/time combination. Nice full flavor, slightly astringent as the liquid leaves your tongue but still good. This tea is very “earthy” in flavor, especially after a few infusions.
