Dry leaf
I am sick but I smelled a very strong food aroma that was familiar. It reminded me of the mixed herbs in a pasta sauce with a slight hint of briny seafood broth at the end.

Infusions
Reminder I have a cold
Very light green similar to sencha color but lighter with a touch of yellow.
Taste was very light as well but 0 astringency (even after throwing boiling water on it) very refreshing tasted similar to a cold brewed sencha but even lighter more floral and more briny.

Will come back to this one when I am not sick and have taste buds.

Flavors: Asparagus, Fish Broth, Seaweed

Preparation
180 °F / 82 °C 2 min, 0 sec 6 g 10 OZ / 300 ML

I try to refrain from numerically rating a tea until I have tried brewing at least an oz of it with various different parameters and vessels (hotter/colder water, longer/shorter times, yixing/gaiwan etc)
