Great green tea from Japan. It’s so delicate that it will probably go very wrong if the brewing time or temperature is not controlled properly. I am happy that the brewing temperature I use for the tea is just right! :) The liquor has a beautiful jade colour, with my favourate vegetal scent of hay that is unique to Japanese green tea! I find the fragrance really calming. Taste-wise it’s mellow, on the sweet side, with an umami finish. Nothing can be better than having a cup of good Japanese tea before starting Japanese revision in the morning… ;)

K is for… Kamairicha “Gokase”!

A decent green tea, too bad I didn’t review it sooner as it has been in a non-airtight package (I hate Lupicia’s bags) for quite a while. Probably wouldn’t have been a favourite.

a solid green tea. it’s very straight forward and simple.

i agree with larukucafe on the umami finish. i also thought the mouth feel was slightly buttery.

A tasty green tea, it’s got a light to middle strongness of taste and is not bitter at all. It was good with my breakfast and held its own. Doesn’t really stand out though, so I don’t think I’d buy it.
