Proper packaging for tea is incredibly important. Not just for aroma but for every other aspect of the tea. You see tea is hygroscopic. Meaning it has the ability to draw from moisture particles around it which makes it perfect for scenting and flavoring. However, this also means that if the manufacturer or you don’t package the tea properly you could be ruining the tea. Momo Vert is a Japanese green tea that can be ruined not only with incorrect water temp but also with aroma. This tea has a sweet cherry / fruity scent mixed in with slightly grassy undertones. It is a nice uplifting smell. Likewise with the flavor. I oversteeped it a little bit so my cuppa is a bit more astringent than preferable. However, even with that astringency the fruity and wonderful grassy notes still get through.
