Just purchased this tea last night after seeing it at the grocery store. Couldn’t resist the price ($3.50 for 7 oz.). It’s a good, basic, daily sencha. It has a nice vegetal smell, and a pleasant astringency. However, it’s easy to over steep and is a little less forgiving than more expensive sencha from Rishi in terms of bitterness.

Bio

I am lucky enough to make my living as a martial arts teacher and as a barista. When I’m not training or making cappuccinos, I relish cooking, reading, growing plants, and of course, drinking tea.

I love greens the most… the grassier the better! I also love oolongs and whites. I have a weak spot for anything with jasmine, mint, or lavender.
