Oh this is an absolutely delightful tea.
It smells sweet and creamy, like a lemon candy or dessert.
The sencha base is fresh and grassy. The lemon flavour is delicate at the beginning of the sip and then in the middle builds to an almost candy-like sweetness that’s creamy and bright but not at all artificial tasting. For all the lemon, it’s not tart, just delicious, through and through.
The finish mellows out, with just a hint of sweet cream on the back of the tongue, and hay notes. There’s only the slightest bit of astringency that’s not noticeable until well into the cup.
I love this tea in the afternoon. A cup goes down incredibly easily and it’s just sunny and fresh tasting.
