Another awesome tea sent from VariaTEA!
I haven’t had a genmaicha in years. The scent definitely has banana. The initial sip has banana, very much like a banana chip. There’s a subtle creamy aspect and a hint of sweetness. I did re-steep this and it’s just as tasty. Even if some of the added flavours are lost, the genmaicha itself is great. I’m going to do a third re-steep as well.
First steep 2 minutes
Second steep 3 minutes, 30 seconds
Overall, really enjoying this one. Thanks VariaTEA!

Years?!
Hahah yeah! I polished off the 4oz. container from H&S years ago and because I wasn’t on Steepster, just never re-ordered from there or anywhere else! Crazy, I know. I just stuck to my black teas and was happy as a clam!
I never thought that there is an idiom “being happy as a clam”. I have to remember it! We use “happy as a flea”. LOL!
I think I would enjoy this tea as well though!
Hahah I love it! I think it’s because I’m from the east coast? It’s something we always say Martin! My grandmother also says “happy as a lark” too!
I’ve definitely heard “happy as a clam” many times here in the States. Lol, I love “happy as a flea”! XD
I love this blend. Probably one of the better banana blends that she has made.
