Sun Dried Jingshan Green from Verdant Tea

I’ve never had a green tea like this before! It really does seem to sparkle in the mouth.
First steep – So bright and clean. A sort of light green flavour. I can’t get over how clear and pristine this is.
2nd – Whoa. This one is stronger and I’m getting an almost citrusy taste. Nice! As it cools it turns more green bean-y.
3rd – I started eating dinner (maple salmon!) here, so I think my taste buds are a little preoccupied (I know, I thought the salmon would take longer to cook!). But this steep was very enjoyable. :)
4th – Okay, done with dinner! Although keep in mind that I did… just eat dinner. But this steep seems more buttery to me.
5th – Super sweet! I’m getting a definite cinnamon-y note.

Mmmm. Sorry this note is so scattered/bad lol. But this tea really is unlike any other green I’ve had. And it changed a lot from steep to steep! Definitely going to have this again, separate from dinner!!
(Also, I see that there is still Golden Fleece available… should I order some?? Hmmmm…)

Are you for real? Buy the fleece girl! I was thinking about this green and the 4 tea’s that are half price right now. Tempting!

Bio

University student and relatively new tea convert. It all started several months ago when my mom bought me a tin of The Glow from David’s. Now I want to try ALL THE TEAS.

If you know of any excellent tea places around downtown Toronto, let me know! I’ve found a few but am always looking for more.
