I love the tea typically served at Japanese restaurants and wanted to get some for my own. So a while back, I asked the waitress “What kind of tea is this?” and she stared at me for a second and replied “Green tea” in a “duh” kind of way. Well… thanks for that. Ever since, I haven’t asked anyone else. Anyway, long story short, I have finally have it with this tea!
This is the second sample that I’ve tried from the Den’s Tea sampler, and I’m really liking it. As much as I’ve grown to love loose leaf, sometimes it’s faster to just dunk a tea bag in some water in a mug. The tea bag immediately released some powdery stuff, which I’m assuming is some kind of matcha or powdered sencha. The tea was a foggy green with a sort of thick/milky texture (that sounds kinda gross, but it wasn’t!). The tea also has a bit of a seaweed-y taste to me. But I may just be remembering eating it with sushi so many times before. Overall, very tasty but a little weak for me. Maybe I’ll like the loose leaf version better. So far, Den’s Tea sampler 2 for 2!
