Jade Spring from Mighty Leaf Tea

Jade Spring

Green Tea by Mighty Leaf Tea

Jade Spring, green tea from the Zhejiang and Fujian provinces of China, has long-tipped green leaves that brew to a soft liquor without a hint of bitterness. Rich and nutty with a clean finish, Jade Spring is pure green tea at its best. A favorite with restaurateurs, this tea forgives while maintaining a smooth cup.

The description is very accurate! My infuser does not like these leaves; I had to smush them up a little to fit properly. I forgot and steeped for too long again, so I did end up getting just a hint of bitterness, but that’s my own fault. I sweetened the tea a bit and it is nice and smooth. I was thinking how to describe the almost grainy sense I got from my first sip, and the description’s “nutty” covers it pretty well.

I admit that I seem to prefer more flavour in my tea, so I gravitate toward blends. Maybe I’ll blend this with something down the road and see how it goes.
