Attempting to de-cupboard some things; this is another green tea whose subtleness is mostly lost on me. I tried cold brewing it last night and this morning I am getting some interesting cucumber and minty notes. Will probably finish the rest of it off in the cold brewed way. :)

I’ve never noticed cucumber in a green tea-I guess I’ve just never looked for it. Do you think the cucumber notes are enhanced by cold brewing the tea?

I would say yes. Still it seems kinda boring…

I am a fan of many different teas but my favorites are blacks and oolongs, chai, also like darjeeling and pu-erh. I’n always learning and expanding my horizons!

Dislikes include: bergamot, jasmine, highly tannic or bitter teas, overly judgmental and bitter people. :)

Live in San Francisco, I’m a SINK (single income, no kids) and love the urban life, but traveling out to the middle of nowhere is always fun too.

I tend to not drink things I know I will hate so a lot of my tea ratings are on the higher side. Here’s my rating system, sorta

95-100 I love this tea and would like to keep it around

94-90 An excellent tea which I may or may not repurchase

89-80 Pretty good, above average

79-70 Acceptable

69-60 Mundane – Will probably drink it if I have it
