I paid attention to my steep times this time around. I was pleasantly surprised. This turned out to be a nice tea. There is still a tinge of astringency but I believe its due to the matcha that is infused in this tea. Good basic tea overall.

My sister had gotten me a bunch of Argo Tea samples a while ago. I finally opened this up and transferred its contents into a washi tin. :) The sencha’s leaves are covered with green powdery matcha! Yum! I couldn’t wait to steep it. I don’t want to rate this right now since I steeped this longer than I should have and it came out a bit astringent and bitter. The smell was great, green, and creamy. The taste was good in the beginning and was just like it smelled except for the astringency and bitterness. I need to try again :)

For the affordable price, I was very impressed by this green tea. The matcha blended into it adds a bold flavor and brilliant color.

Rainy August morning. Cuppa green tea. Riding in the hobo corner, staring out the back window of the L train. Prefab Sprout’s “Steve McQueen” album. Perfect.
