I’m not a huge green tea lover but this is definitely one of the nicer ones I have tried lately. I need to write my review since I just finished the sample! It has a wonderful fresh and nutty smell when you open the bag. The tea is super mellow and rich, has a walnut taste and a bit of butter in the finish. I would recommend it without hesitation.
Like a lot of green teas this one is a finicky creature and is easy to ruin if you steep it with water that is too hot or steeping time that is too long. This makes it difficult for me to enjoy at work where I don’t have the benefit of being able to stand around with my timer and thermometer! I was a skeptic but am amazed at how much better my greens are when I keep the water temp. lower & the steeping time short.
I have enjoyed these Laoshan green teas very much, thanks to Verdant for making them available…

Once you get the hang of brewing greens you will love them…
you are probably right!
Amy, have you ever tried Tai Ping Hou Kui? It is smooth & delicious…..one of my favorites.
What about you Charles?
Scott -I have not. Where do you get yours from?
Yes Scott. I tried Uptons. Very nice
I’ve gotten mine from H & S, and I bought some from Stash.Harney’s was really good, but I haven’t tried Stash’s yet. Haven’t tried Upton’s yet Charles.
I am loving everything that I have got from Verdant. Greens, Oolongs, Black or Puerh….
Yeah, I’ll have to check them out!
