The first of the free samples that Yunomi sent with my order, though this was some leftover 2023 tea. Still tasted good, but I can’t help but think it was significantly better fresh.
I’m a sucker for asamushi. This one is very nice. Nothing wrong with it, but also nothing that stands out. Just a solid pick. Mouthfeel is mildly thick. No bitterness or astringency. Mild sweetness with strong umami.
