Premium Korean Green

This bagged tea doesn’t have much of an aroma or color to it. But what it lacks in those areas it makes up for in taste! This is darn tasty for a bagged green tea! It’s sweet and semi-malty for a a green. It has a slight hint of citrus, almost. The after taste is refreshing and cooling…not quite a mint flavor but something FRESH! This was a great surprise! I really enjoy this bagged green!

Thank you TeaEqualsBliss for sending me some of this tea.

I started brewing this right before I stepped outside to get the mail. I came inside just as the tea had finished brewing, so I removed the bag, and started to look through the mail. I got some tea (yay, Matcha!) and then some rather unsettling news. So, I found myself stressing out about this, and totally distracted from my freshly brewed cup of tea. I didn’t even take a tester sip of it to see if I needed to add a pinch of sugar to it (I always test the tea, and usually, it doesn’t need it.) so when I got back to the cup about 45 minutes later, it was quite a bit cooler but fortunately it did not need anything added to it. I didn’t think it would, I don’t usually need to add anything to my teas. But sometimes, with the edger teas, I find that they go down smoother with a pinch of sugar.

But I digress. Now, it is quite cold. But, it is still quite tasty. It is a little sweet with a strong, vegetative taste. A touch of fruity taste toward mid-sip through to the finish. I like that this is a little more savory than sweet, but enough contrast between the two to keep it lively and interesting.
