My second sample from Tiffany – thank you! I am familiar with Japanese Tea Co, but haven’t had a chance to try their teas before, so I was excited to give this one a go!
I really like this kabusecha. It has a lot of character that is easily brought out given the presumably heavy steaming creating the mostly broken leaf. The flavor comes out real quick, so shorter steep times (45 sec for steep 1) and lower temps are better for my tastes. I really do enjoy this sample a lot and will have to sample from the rest of their catalogue!
Flavors: Grassy, Seaweed, Tropical Fruit, Umami
