Sweet and floral and not so much vegetal.
Medium-body with creaminess; smooth start turns into a minor tannin after taste.
Careful not to over-brew, can quickly become too astringent.

Flavors: Honey, Honeysuckle

Color: faint neon green
Initial aroma strength: delicate/underwhelming
Body: light but not too light. low bitterness, generally smooth finish.
Aroma: grassy (not necessarily fresh cut but fresher than hay; similar to the smell that you get when you cut your lawn in the morning and come back in the afternoon on a fairly dry day), a faint hint of pine needle and earth.
A lot of tiny sediments.
Overall well balanced.
