The aroma of this tea almost reminds me of lychee juice, which is interesting but quite nice-smelling. I accidentally made it with freshly boiling water instead of not-quite-boiling, and had to wait a while before being able to take the first sip!
I was a little bit disappointed with the flavour, however, it did not match the intensity of the aroma. In fact, it tastes a bit like a watered-down version of regular sencha green tea. Next time I will steep longer than the recommended 3.5mins in order to try to get more subtle flavours out of the whole blend.

Preparation
Boiling 3 min, 30 sec 2 tsp

Bio

I joined Steepster Nov. 2/’15. I am an aspiring law student, currently studying for the LSAT. Meanwhile, I drink a lot of tea, work as a legal assistant and watch Netflix in my down time.

Ever since joining Steepster, I have tried a whole bunch new tea, met awesome people, and learned quite a lot! I am still expanding my tea horizons, currently working on exploring the oolong and puerh territories. Oolong has been a pleasant journey so far, while puerh is more rocky and uncertain. I shall keep trekking on!

My favourite teas are blacks and greens, both flavoured and unflavoured, and I have a few staples that I drink all the time.

I love to try teas that I would otherwise not have access to, and therefore I am always looking for people to trade samples with. Send me a message if you are interested!

My Wishlist is teas that I would like to restock (as a note to myself). My ratings are mostly arbitrary. Generally, anything above 90 I will likely restock. 70-80 I enjoyed, but will not go out of my way to get again. Anything below 70 was not that great, and the lower the mark the less I enjoyed it.
