From Teabox

We love this green tea for its robustness and for the layered flavors which keep the palate excited with their peaks and lows. They turn big quite fast and mellow down just as quickly. No single note lingers long enough, thereby offering you a plethora of experiences to cherish in a single cup. You will surely love discovering new flavors and textures as you make your way through till the end.

So this is a sample that was in my drawer at work (along with a bunch of single wrapped sachets from Lupicia, Harney, and the like). It’s a green tea from Nilgiri, which should be interesting. The dry leaf is almost pellet-like and somewhat reminds me of CTC.

This reminds me quite a bit of a gunpowder green tea. It has the same strong earthy flavor with mineral and slight smoke notes. There are some roasted grain notes here as well though, similar to houjicha. I do get some bitterness and quite a lot of astringency after a 2.5 minute steep.

I do find some similarity in this to Indian black teas, it’s quite brisk and has a similar astringent aftertaste. Very interesting! It’s a bit too brisk for me for a green tea.

Didn’t know what to expect with this one. the dry broken leaf looked anything like a green tea. The aroma was not of a green either, but when steeped it did provide a unique tasting experience for this Gua Pian/Bi Luo Chun lover. The Teabox descriptive notes are pretty much right on, menthol, vegetal and I would add smokiness. I missed the citrus yet it is definitely a complex flavor profile with some fun palate and back of the throat sensations.
I did wonder, if this tea was given the same treatment as the Yunnan raw Pu Erh’s we all love, it could be a fun experiment.
