For me the pre-brew scent is odd. It’s what I would expect if coffee and green tea mated and had a baby. The green is much stronger when brewed.
Warning to others, I’m not a green tea fan and didn’t realize what this was until I brewed it since my packaging is in Chinese. My rating will be lower then someone who enjoys green teas more.
Anyway, the flavor is pretty much green tea. It does taste fresher and crisper then some other green teas that I’ve had.
4 Tasting Notes
A nice, balanced tea, I blended it with a bit of vanilla tea to give it a slightly sweeter aftertaste.
Really can appreciate this tea. As the lady of the vegetarian supermarket said to me: There is tea to strengthen your Yin and there is tea to strengthen your Yang… this tea is right in the middle, for when you are already balanced.
As it seems I am balanced, this tea is well taken by my body. Drinks easily, has enough power to notice its strength and can easily be steeped up to 4 times, becoming more gentle per steep, without losing its characteristic taste.
I enjoy tea very much but I am far from an expert in understanding of tea but, here it goes:
From what I can tell so far, I lean towards green tea. I haven’t developed a taste for strong tea and this tea has a mild yet satisfying effect. I can enjoy a pot in the morning (weekends) when I have time to savor it. :)
