2010 Shin-cha Genmai-cha with Matcha from Maeda-en

the_skua drank 2010 Shin-cha Genmai-cha with Matcha by Maeda-en

At higher temps, this tea exudes bright tangerine, but I still find the puffed rice a little overbearing.

Bio

Exploring the world of fine Chinese and Japanese teas, my favorites include: sheng pu’er, moderately roasted oolongs, gyokuro, shincha, and high quality, artisanal whites and greens. I don’t subscribe to any particular style of brewing, but incorporate elements from traditional techniques to brew the best tea possible. I also seek to share the joy that tea brings me with others, but am really rather introverted.
