This is one of my favorite flavored green teas. It reminds me of Forsman tea’s Emperor’s choice green tea which has lychee and safflower petals instead of lily petals. I bet the recipe is very close and the green tea the same. This is just a tad cheaper and more available.

This tea is fruity and sweet. The leave smell oh so fruity and delicious. I should have steeped this in a couple of degrees lower temperature but I was impatient. I like my green tea green.

Very nice green tea.

Fruity pleasant taste. Cocos adds an interesting nuance to it. Tea is reddish yellow. Taste goes bitter when it gets cold.

This tea is more genmai than bancha. I picked out almost all the roasted rice and steeped just the bancha. Tea is bright light green and has a hint of the taste of the roaste rice now. It’s quite good.

This is excellent chilled as well.

Tea has a distinct scent of vanilla.

Very good flavored white tea. Very much like Valkoinen Helmi but with a hint of vanilla.

I’m trying out a little longer steeping times but I like my white tea light and mild. A shorter steaping time preserved the freshness of the taste. The packaged says “steep al leats 5 minutes” but that’s way too long for me 2,5 – 3 minutes is my usual steeping time for this tea.

This tea is my first Pu-Erh tea. I like it. I have drank it from time to time and It’s quite nice thought I have no other Pu-Erh experience to compare with.

A cup of cheap Earl Grey for this dreary afternoon. Stronger and slightly more bitter than I’d like, but perfect for waking me up to do some cooking and chores.

Lady Grey is one of my all time favorites. Love the smell of the leaves. Taste is citrusy and classic. I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of it.

Golden yellow mild tea. Wheaty after taste. Leaves smell odd, but tea does not have any of that smell.

Mild and pleasant.

Genmaicha must be an aquired taste. This was horrible. Maybe I have to keep trying this and I’ll learn to drink it.
