737 tasting notes

Just saw my first tasting note on this one. It’s from four years ago. So this is an OLD tea (yes, it’s the same tin of tea from 4 years ago). It’s obviously not as strong as it used to be in flavor, but it’s still definitely drinkable. It’s got a brothy, nutty, toasty, vegetal profile. It’s decaf, so it has that flat decaf tinge in the aftertaste, kind of like what a box of dry pasta smells like. But since it’s H & S, the leaf is such good quality that I don’t mind it.

I’m drinking this because I’m primarily after the health and mood benefits of green tea, so the flavor is secondary to me anyway.

Flavors: Toasty, Vegetal
