This. Tea. Is. Amazing.
The first smell, the first sip, this is what I think of when I want a great tea. Simple in it’s roots, but with an interesting twist that sets it apart without being over kill.
It’s teas like this that years ago helped me come to the conclusion that if I ever had to choose between tea and beer, tea would win hands down.
This is just a simple, solid green tea, with that tell tale grass, earth, and straw smell and taste, but with something extra. Strong hints of butter, and a smooth and almost creamy feel make this tea one of the best Green Teas I have ever tasted.
I got 4 steepings out of these leaves, 3 tablespoons in my 32 ounce Bodum Assam, and all 4 were full of flavor and life. Probably could have gotten a 5th out of them, but one must move on at some point.
Brilliant.
