Mao Feng Tranquility Green

This is ever so slightly scented green and the post infusion liquid color is very lightly colored yellow-green. I will say this is probably the sweetest green tea I have ever tasted or at least in recent memory. I think that is the highlight of this tea! The natural sweetness. I can get a little bit of the chestnut comparison but it’s not a nutty flavor, persay…well, maybe if you sip and hold the tea on the middle part of your tongue it’s a little (chest)nutty-esque. It’s earthy-sweet – more sweet than earth! I like it and it’s pleasant!

I’ve been drinking this tea for a few months now, and I dare say it’s my second favorite green tea. First is Xin Yang Mao Jian green from www.drinkyourtea.com, a friend’s website, and followed shortly by my third, a good dragonwell.

I love green teas that brew very light and sweet cups. This one is just beautiful. Very vegetal aroma and taste, along with the extremely nice sweetness. I also enjoy that this can be brewed upward of 8 times and still produce a nice cup.

A solid green tea. I just bought 1/4 lb of it :)

Thanks to TeaEqualsBliss for this beaut.

A no-nonsense, simple, light green with a great natural sweetness. A very pleasant green.

I’m not one of those people that will spend a lot of money on green teas because, case in point, you can get a very satisfying green tea that hits all the notes—sweet, light, pleasingly vegetal—for a very reasonable price, from the always reliable Mark T. Wendell company.
