A blend of lightly steamed organic sencha with two types of Japanese Melon creates a rich and fruity delight both iced or warm.
Our organic Midori is our second-ever “Special Reserve” tea. It is a blend of light-steamed Japanese green tea, Japanese muskmelon, Japanese ibari melon, Chinese safflower, Egyptian hibiscus fruit and calendula, French lavender, and Chilean and Pakistani rose petals.
The word “midori” is Japanese for green. Aside from the gold and vermillion flowers in Midori, “green” is a wonderfully apt descriptor: its aroma and flavor are sublimely green, with bold notes from rare, green-tasting Japanese melons and premium Japanese green tea, and its infusion is gorgeous milky chartreuse.
The taste is smooth, balanced and only lightly sweet, as anything more would overshadow the nuances of this delicate interplay of green melon and green tea. The paper-thin aftertaste subtly echoes the flavor of this astounding Special Reserve tea.
Midori is a personal favorite of our co-founder, Randy.
This tea is certified USDA organic.

This is a very nice and elegant tea. I like the aroma and taste of melons of all types, and this has a good, true aroma. The taste is excellent as well with the green base being a true showcase for the melon. I did not pick up on the other flavors, but hoped not to.
The American Tea Room has some superb blends and excellent customer service.
What a perfect summer tea! I usually enjoy melon teas when paired with a white tea base but the green tea base almost seemed to add some authenticity to the melon flavor. I may have to buy a larger quanity of this to enjoy all summer long. Or wait, I need to drink through some tea first. :/
I was so happy that ATR sent me this as a sample because it’s one of the others I wanted to try!
I might have not brewed it correctly because it ended up too bitter and the melon is a bit too strong for me. I will try again before rating =)
2nd steep: So it was much more drinkable this time, but the melon flavor really isn’t doing it for me, I didn’t really enjoy it.
How ’bout that NYC Marathon?
Continuing on my flavored green tear as of late with this sample. I always love how teas with flower petals in them look. The smell of this in the packet is indeed quite melony. Cantaloupe, is what I’m getting.
I saw some notes on murkiness, and my tea has a fair amount of cloud in a dark golden liquor. There’s a mild, and pleasant, melon aroma with just a hint of grassy green tea underneath.
It tastes like it smells, but has a touch of bitterness in the finish. I think with both this and the Immortal Green of yesterday, I am going to cut back the steeping time just a bit next time. I’m not sure that green melon can beat white melon (like ever) but this is a strong second, bitter finish notwithstanding.
Flavors: Cantaloupe, Grass, Melon
LOL it seems like your tea cupboard is running dangerously LOW.
This is a tea I would like to try as I really like California Tea House’s Melon Yogurt Green Tea…
