This is a bright green, vegetal and somewhat sweet brew. It is I think a mixture of sencha and matcha. When I transferred the tea into a tin I could see a cloud of matcha dust left behind. There is definitely matcha in there. The surprising thing about this tea is the lack of bitterness. I was expecting a little. It does have a strong vegetal quality to it.

I brewed this once with my Teavana Glass Perfect Tea Maker/Gravity Steeper with 2 tsp leaf and 175 degree water for 1 min 30 sec.

Flavors: Vegetal

Preparation
175 °F / 79 °C 1 min, 30 sec 2 tsp 16 OZ / 473 ML

I am noticing a little bitterness as the tea cools. Didn’t notice it when the tea was hot.

It was good but different compared to what I’m used to.

I am Allan. I live and work in Long Island, New York. I have been amassing a tea collection for nearly two years and have spent way too much money. I now try to buy mostly Puerh as I like it most and it lasts nearly forever. Black tea has a habit of going bad. If anyone is interested in tea swaps I am open to ideas and have quite a cupboard.
